Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University Bursaries And Financial Aid

NMMU offers various forms of bursaries and loans, including our scholar and student merit awards which reward top academic performance. We also administer funds from corporate donors and from the National Student Financial Aid scheme (NSFAS). NSFAS funding is especially aimed at assisting financially needy and academically deserving students.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF FINANCIAL AID

The provision of financial aid to students has a threefold aim and is covered by the following objectives:

To recruit top students to the University,
To promote and reward academic excellence at the University,
To enable students who are both financially needy and academically deserving to gain access to NMMU.

The first two objectives will be met by providing merit bursaries to prospective and current undergraduate students, while the third objective will be met by allocating loans under the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS)

Education drives the nation forward. Our mission is to empower individuals to become that driving force on their own way

Eduloan is a leading education finance specialist operating in Southern Africa. Committed to making education both affordable and accessible to all individuals looking to further their education.
Since our inception in 1996 we have awarded over 800 000 study loans to the value of more than R4,5 billion and we continue to help thousands across Africa unlock their true potential.
By making our study finance as affordable as possible, we are ensuring that a large number of individuals who would otherwise not qualify for educational finance now have the means to improve their lives, the lives of their loved ones, and our nation as a whole through education.
The Eduloan vision is to improve people’s lives through financial access to education. We understand the real costs associated with furthering your education and offer study loan solutions that cover not only course fees, but additional expenses such as textbooks, registration fees and technology which includes laptops, tablets and other study equipment that may be associated with your studies. We also offer fund and bursary administration solutions to assist students and bursars alike in effectively managing bursary funds, training funds, CSI funds, cashless payments and class attendance of students and learnership beneficiaries.
