CAPE TOWN – The National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) said Saturday that they are aware of the numerous posts on Twitter about the R350 grant, but the information is not correct.

The student fund said in a statement that reports circulating on Twitter that students would receive an R350 Sassa scholarship were false.

NSFAS said: “We take note of the post on Twitter stating that students receiving R350 Sassa grant relief do not qualify for NSFAS funding. NSFAS would like to clarify that this is factually incorrect in saying that a person who receives the R350 grant will not be funded. ”

The fund said it takes responsibility for incorrect information that was shared.

There was an error that resulted in an erroneous message sent by an uninformed employee, NSFAS said.

“It is important to note that all Sassa grant recipients are automatically funded.

“NSFAS apologizes for any inconvenience this may have caused,” the student fund said.
