NSFAF to extend funding

Of 6 339 loans given to undergraduate students by the Namibia Student Financial Assistance Fund (NSFAF) last year, only 42 went to students from the Kunene Region.
The Kunene, Omaheke and Hardap regions have had lowest numbers of applications for study loans for undergraduate and postgraduate programmes.
NSFAF says this could be attributed to high grade 12 failure rates in the three regions.
In 2015, only 42 learners from the Kunene Region were awarded loans for undergraduate programmes, compared to the Oshana Region which had 791 successful applicants.
