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.
