Full-time Nelson Mandela University students can apply for bursaries, merit awards, scholarships, and study loans (see the documents below for download). Eligibility is determined by academic excellence, athletic accomplishments, and financial requirements. These grants will not always cover all expenses, and not all applicants will receive them. In addition, Nelson Mandela University collaborates with the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) to provide students with financial assistance. More information can be obtained from:
