Lolo your niece will be fine but kufanele enze sure ukuthi she passes all her subjects so that NFSAS can pay for her fees the following year. Reply to Sies Posted by: fl | 2012/05/27 Been there please help. I also want to study law. I''m currently working but I''m not fulfilled. I want to go back to school but do not have the funds to do so.I really just want to change my life for the better. I need a mentor and somebody to just encourage me, and truly believe that with God I will do the rest.Starting is always the hardest part. Please help Reply to fl Posted by: Been there | 2012/05/25 Sorry i meant to say that she only paid for her application fees and NOT REGISTRATION FEES. Reply to Been there Posted by: Been there | 2012/05/25 Im so happy for your niece. The relative i was talking about who was at UJ is at Univen this year. She never paid a cent, only registration fees and she is continuing with her Bcom Accounting degree. God helps us so we could help others. If she needs any advice or a mentor pls let me know, i will gladly assist where i can. God bless you dear Reply to Been there Posted by: Lolo | 2012/05/25 Been there, U such a star, if u were next to me i was gona HUG you dont know how many times & kiss you lol.. I jst phoned uj & univen GUESS WHAT? they only need 200 fela for rvasirty registration & they told me if her reselts are Good , automatically loan is approved & it doesnt take more than 3days for this process. How do you like it? Thank you so much Been there, May the Lord richely bless you & yr family. KIss Kiss ((((((hug)))))) Reply to Lolo Posted by: Been there | 2012/05/25 Wow, What a coincidence? Im a qualified Attorney and as i said, pls let her apply now. She wont even need R5000 registration, NFSAS will cover her registration fees as well. My relative was at UJ last year she never paid for reg fees and it also covered for her accomodation expenses. If she is in Gauteng, let her try Uj and the University of Pretoria (Tuks). If her points are okay, let her apply for an LLB degree. All the best Reply to Been there Posted by: Lolo | 2012/05/25 Her matric results were very good, she does qualify to go to varsity, she wants to study law ( not sure on which one , cos they differ ), she needed 5000 for registration ka jan but i couldnt gather all the monies @ that time but i think i can try an assist her to register now for 2013, she told me she can even work temporary so that she can save money for varsity next yr. She ''s so commited . I hate it when she''s sitting @home not doing anything... Reply to Lolo Posted by: Been there | 2012/05/25 First step u need to apply asap on her behalf with tertiary inst (universities or technikons-now called Technology Uniuersities), pay the application fee and then she will get NFSAS (TEFSA). I went to Universities, obtained my 3 degrees with no financial help from home cause of poverty. First year i got TEFSA and i worked very hard to qualify for achievements and merit bursaries. What does she want to study? How were the results? The funding is there even now i know some who are from poor backgrounds and are studying through NFSAS Reply to Been there Want to comment?
