Nsfas Fixes Funding Mess for 182 Students | Johannesburg News

from Johannesburg News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Hundreds of students at Tshwane University of Technology lost financial aid due to a system glitch that wrongly triggered the N-plus rule — but thanks to Deputy Minister Yusuf Cassim’s swift intervention, their funding was restored and September allowances were paid. The fix also uncovered deeper issues: over 1,200 students in approved housing haven’t received payments, and 115 newly funded students face the same problem. The Deputy Minister has now demanded urgent action from the Nsfas Board to resolve these accommodation woes — part of a broader push to clear thousands of outstanding aid cases across universities and TVET colleges.
