Which Colleges offer NSFAS In Free State 2026
Education is one of the most powerful tools for building a better future, but for many young South Africans, the cost of higher learning can be a major obstacle. Thankfully, the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) continues to play an important role in making tertiary education more accessible. As we look ahead to the 2026 academic year, students in the Free State who are planning to study at public colleges or universities will be pleased to know that NSFAS funding remains available at a number of institutions across the province.
NSFAS provides financial assistance to qualifying students who wish to pursue their studies at public Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) colleges or universities. In the Free State, several institutions are part of this initiative, giving thousands of students the opportunity to further their education without the financial burden. Colleges that offer NSFAS funding in the Free State include Motheo TVET College, Goldfields TVET College, and Maluti TVET College. These colleges have multiple campuses across the province, providing a broad range of programmes in business, engineering, hospitality, and more.
It is important to note that NSFAS is only available to students who meet specific criteria, including household income thresholds and academic requirements. The application process generally opens in the latter part of each year, and students are encouraged to apply early to avoid delays.
