If you’re planning on furthering your studies at the UKZN and need funding, you might want to consider applying for financial assistance.
The institution has several funding options for students who are in need and are capable of obtaining their degree or qualification in the minimum amount of time.
The most common financial assistance students are provided with is through various types of government funding, which can be obtained through funding organisations like the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (Nsfas).
To ensure that students get the most out of their studies, the bursary scheme makes beneficiaries' educational journey free of any financial burden by providing all necessary support from registration until graduation.

- The Victor Daitz Foundation
- The Terry & Gladys Champaign Educational Trust

Additionally, the institution also offers bursaries to students that are funded through external funding.
