The Qwaqwa Campus of the University of the Free State (UFS) will reopen on 28 February 2022. The decision was made by the university management today after the campus was closed on 22 February 2022 due to violent protest action.
From 28 February 2022 to 4 March 2022, all classes will be presented online.
Students will be informed by their respective faculties about the model of academic delivery that will be followed from 7 March 2022.
The arrangement is estimated to continue for two to three weeks at the most, after which the academic programme will return to the approved teaching plans for 2022.

Kovsies ladies’ and men’s basketball first teams showed off their expertise on the court – hosting a camp for first-year students. Shooting hoops at the two Callie Human outdoor courts, the teams helped about 150 first-year students through drills, skills challenges and games.
Men’s first-team player, Clemen Kock, says the new-comers, a mix of first-time and experienced basketball players, had “a mad time” on the court learning new skills. “We are looking forward to a great year of academics mixed with some crazy basketball with a Res-Campus League kicking off soon.”
