SLTF to advance fees for first-year students facing admission payment deadlines

The Students Loan Trust Fund (SLTF) is providing bridge financing to newly admitted first-year students of public universities and public technical universities who require immediate financial support to secure their admissions under the Government’s No Academic Fees Policy.

The Fund has therefore urged all newly admitted first-year students who need immediate assistance to apply promptly through the No-Fees-Stress Portal to secure their admission and begin the academic year without the burden of immediate fee-payment challenges.

The amount advanced will subsequently be reconciled against the financial support due to the student under the No Academic Fees Policy, meaning the intervention is intended to bring forward the benefit students would otherwise receive after the validation and payment process is completed.
