Education Fee-Free
Education Fee-Free is true. If just need to meet the criteria set by the government to be eligible for fee-free education in South Africa. The following are the requirement.
- You will need to meet the minimum requirements for your study choice
- You will need to have an annual household income of less than R350 000 a year if you’re a first-time applicant
After meeting the requirement, what’s next?
The next step to Education Fee-Free is to apply directly to a public institution before the closing date. The government will only reopen the Central Application Clearing House (CACH) on January 2023. Therefore, you can apply for fee-free education through NSFAS once they open applications this year.
Note: the CACH system will NOT allow you to choose a specific institution to study at. It will simply match you to the institutions that still have space available.
