Does the NRF allow project changes from what was submitted in the original application that was approved for funding?

Yes, changes are allowed, however these changes have to be approved by the NRF. A formal letter explaining the project change which is signed by the student and supervisor should be submitted to the institutional research or postgraduate office. Thereafter the office will forward the letter to the NRF. Project changes should be logged with the NRF within the first year of the grant.
