The search for the 2019/2020 #KovsieCyberSta team has been an exciting one, with Anderson Mosia and Olebogeng Tlhong coming out tops to beat the competition.
Anderson, a second-year BA Languages student, didn’t let last year’s failure deter his efforts to enter again this year. 

“I am hoping to achieve a lot of things. My milestone would be to raise the bar high for the next stars; I've got a lot in store,” he says. 

He says he is passionate about spreading love, and he will use this new platform to express himself.

It has been first-time charm for first-year LLB student, Olebogeng. She says as soon as she saw the competition was open, she knew it was something that would fit her persona. 

“I am hoping to not only grow as an individual, but to leave my mark. The question that I asked myself before stepping into this role, was –what’s going to be different because you stepped in? I aspire to document and present events in the best way that I know, while being open to learning and, through my knowledge, inspire and teach others.”

The 19-year-old says she will use her passion for serving to express herself best over the next 12 months. 

“I believe that it is my duty to use the knowledge I have acquired/am to acquire in order to make somebody else’s life better. So essentially, I am a servant leader; I believe that there is enough room for everybody to succeed,” she adds.

As #KovsieCyberStas, the duo will cover events on and around campus, while filming and presenting short video clips to give fellow Kovsies some insight into these events across the UFS’s digital platforms.

UFS applications for admissions amid the ongoing SA Post Office strike
2014-10-03

 
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.
