As part of supporting and promoting student progression and success, the Centre for Teaching and Learning has developed the Kovsie Advice mag, an interactive document designed to help keep you on track while you are on your educational journey at the University of the Free State (UFS).

This mag aims to guide you from planning your academic year through to successful completion. A new edition of the mag will be released every quarter during the academic year.

It will help you focus and provide you with advice on how to best approach your studies, plan, cope with assessments, know the UFS better, manage your finances and ultimately pass.
