The National Student Financial Aid Scheme has blamed Unisa for leaving students in the lurch, as they “should have by now received their allowances as a total of R247,078,688.97 was advanced to the institution on February 6 2019”.
“Universities are required to transfer funds to ensure that students are able to access funds for living expenses and learning materials, and then secondly apply funding towards paying the first instalment of the tuition fee,” NSFAS said in a statement on Wednesday. “Unisa along with... 25 universities agreed to administer direct payments of allowances to their students. More than R3bn was advanced to universities who complied with the preconditions of a signed Memorandum of Understanding . The first tranche of payments was meant to ensure that First-Time Entering Students and senior students who are NSFAS approved receive their allowances as they commence with academic activities.
and Unisa still refuses to accept that they have a big problem...
This is not working n NSFAS is aware that a lot of students experience difficulties because of tertiary institutions not paying while NSFAS claims that they gave them money. NSFAS must do something about this because this causes a lot of stress for students.
