A step-by-step guide on how to check your NSFAS status for applicants who are finding difficulty in getting it done.
- Before we start, the applicants must know that the application results will be communicated to all applicants once NFSA receives confirmation from the institution that an academic offer has been made to you.
- The applicants must note that the process takes some time to be successful, so patience is crucial.
- NFSAS has committed to informing all applicants of their decisions before starting the academic year. Communication will be done through the following communication platforms: SMS, email, and the applicant’s myNSFAS account. So applicants should ensure that they put the correct details of their cell phone numbers and email addresses to avoid unnecessary errors that could cost them.
- Applicants should keep their contact details updated to ensure that all is well from their side. Also, the reference number provided after applying is sent via email.
- Applicants should familiarise themselves with the platform by carefully reading what is written on the portal. This will allow them to click on the correct component.

- It is important that you keep your username and password handy for the purpose of signing in to the platform provided by NSFAS.
