How to Register For Tenet NSFAS online 2024
If you are a student registered with NSFAS for funding during the 2024 academic year and beyond, you’ll need to migrate from your existing wallet payment disbursement method to the new NSFAS bank account options. One of these options is the Tenet NSFAS account. Let’s dive into the details:
What Is Tenet NSFAS?
As part of NSFAS’s digital migration, students receiving NSFAS funding are now required to have an NSFAS bank account. This allows them to receive their allowances quickly, without the need for educational institutions to act as intermediaries. The new NSFAS bank accounts have been created with several approved financial partners, including Tenet, Coinvest, eZaga, and Noracco.
