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.

New Community Service policy for UFS
2006-10-12
After an inclusive consultation process conducted since 2005 with a wide variety of partners, staff and other experts, the Council of the University of the Free State (UFS) approved a new community service policy. The new policy will contribute to strengthen the already competitive national position of the UFS as far as community service learning and research is concerned. It will also clearly and academically articulate the stated aspiration of the UFS to become a truly engaged university.
The technical team responsible for the compilation of the new police are, from the left: Dr Mabel Erasmus (Senior Lecturer: Community Service Development and Implementation), Rev Kiepie Jaftha (Chief Director: Community Service) and Mr Willem Ellis (independent consultant).
