Bank Windhoek has started on boarding students and issuing them with the brand new Bank Windhoek NSFAF Student Account cards at the University of Namibia (UNAM) and Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST) campuses in Windhoek as well as at their Branches in Windhoek.

Q: Which students qualify to get their NSFAF Bank Windhoek Student Card?
A: Only current beneficiaries will be getting their NSFAF Bank Windhoek Student Cards during this phase of the rollout. Students who are beneficiaries from the beginning of the 2019 academic year will be informed via the NSFAF Office when they will have their accounts credited and where and when their cards can be collected. This part of the rollout is envisaged for September 2019.
Q: Where can students obtain their cards?
