The National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) is a South African government student financial aid scheme which provides financial aid to undergraduate students to assist them in paying for their tertiary education after finishing high school. It is funded by the Department of Higher Education and Training.

The NSFAS student portal allows students to check the status of their NSFAS application, access their allowance and receive information with regards to their funding.
