NSFAS Donor Codes {FBLN-1}

Institutions that make money available to NSFAS to supply money for tertiary education for students are referred to as donors by NSFAS. The tertiary institutions must report back to NSFAS per donor code. Donor codes are NSFAS defined and must be linked to NSFAS bursaries on {FBLO-1}. NSFAS will supply a file on an annual basis to the institution with all the donor codes. The user must update this table electronically every year using {FBLN-21}. This information will be used when interim reports and final reports are submitted to NSFAS.
