Can a student whose application was unsuccessful appeal the funding decision?

The NRF has an appeal process each year after awards have been made. However, the appeal process is limited to applications that were not recommended for funding during the review process (conducted by the institution). Applicants’ whose applications were submitted to the NRF for review cannot appeal against a funding decision made by the NRF. Appeals cannot be done against a type of approved funding amount i.e., FCS or PCS.
