FINANCIAL AID
An amount for bursaries is budgeted annually.
NC (V) Level 2, 3, and 4 students who are successful in their studies and have adhered to the prescribed College criteria can apply for a bursary. This bursary does not cover the whole amount of the course and accommodation fee. A means test is used to determine the amount that each student will receive. Students are liable for the outstanding balances not covered by the bursary.
NB: NO STUDENT WILL RECEIVE A FULL BURSARY
Applications for the bursaries are submitted to the Financial Aid Manager after consultation with the Departmental Heads.
The following criteria are considered for awarding bursaries: (Full-time students only)

Original documents are not accepted. It is the responsibility of the student to make sure that the application form is fully/ correctly completed.
On submission of the NSFAS application form, the student will receive a receipt, which should be kept as proof of application, without it, is your word against ours. Please present your slip at all times to the Financial Aid/Bursary Office.
First-year students will only be given an application form for Financial Assistance upon providing the Financial Aid Office with a letter from the university indicating that the student has been either accepted or provisionally accepted for the 2025 academic year.
The value of the NSFAS award will only be credited to the student’s fee account in the third term, once all bursaries have been awarded and paid into the student’s account. This is to ensure that the loans granted are as low as possible.
Students receiving NSFAS loans will be required to complete an application form and a loan agreement before any payment will be effected.
The allocation received from NSFAS is limited and hence the Financial Aid Committee of the Northern Cape Urban TVET College, which gives financial aid awards, must ensure that as many students are supported as possible while at the same time taking into account financial need.
Students are therefore advised that registering based on receiving a full loan from NSFAS should not be considered and that a family contribution as determined by the Means Test may be required. It is also important to note that there are various kinds of funding made available each year through NSFAS.
All students can apply for a loan from the National Students Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS), a government loan scheme with the added incentive of a bursary conversion (max 40%) depending on academic performance. The parent’s/family’s contribution to the student’s study cost is called the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) and is calculated using the Government’s National Means Test.
