Mail services in Gauteng, Bloemfontein, Durban and Cape Town are hampered by the unprotected industrial action of Post Office employees.
The closing date for applications for admission in 2015 was 30 September 2014. But, due to the strike, the University of the Free State has made alternative arrangements for first-time applicants who have applied via post for admission to study in 2015.
If a first-time applicant can provide the university with proof that he/she posted an application form for admission before or on 30 September 2014, a duplicate of this application will be accepted up until 10 October 2014. Proof of postage can be sent to Applications@ufs.ac.za.
If a first-time applicant is not able to provide proof of postage, an application for admission in 2015 should be sent to the same email address by 10 October 2014. The UFS will allow applications to be received until 08:00 on Monday 13 October 2014.
