Will the NRF still be considering applications for extension support and at what level of study?
Will the NRF still be considering applications for extension support and at what level of study?
Yes, the NRF will maintain its mechanism for providing extension of funding support at the master’s and doctoral level only. Recipients of both Full Cost of Study (FCS) and PCS scholarships may apply for extension support funding, however such extension will only be provided under exceptional circumstances and will not exceed twelve (12) months. Students who are awarded extension support will be awarded according to the value of their scholarship received in the year of extension support application.
