UFS extends online registration period to 18 February 2022

09 February 2022 | Story Lacea Loader

After careful consideration and in consultation with various stakeholders, the management of the University of the Free State (UFS) today decided that the online registration period will be extended by one week until Friday 18 February 2022.

In line with this decision, classes will commence on Monday 21 February 2022, to give students enough time to register and prepare for their academic activities.

The university’s decision to extend the online registration period derives, among others, from logistical and external factors that contributed to students only being able to register from the week of 7 February 2022.

Channels available for students to contact the university during the registration period:

► Central contact centre: +27 51 401 9111 (if you want to speak to one of our agents)

► WhatsApp chatbot: +27 87 240 6370 (if students want to conduct an online chat conversation via text messages)

►Registration assistance: System-based online registration assistance functionality through the UFS website

UFS participates in the World Conference on Higher Education

2009-07-21

Proff. Driekie Hay and Aldo Stroebel recently participated as invited delegates in the World Conference on Higher Education held at the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) in Paris, France. More than 1 200 delegates attended the conference. The new Minister of Higher Education and Training, Dr Blade Nzimande, represented the African Union as Chairperson of the Ministers of Education in Africa. The 2009 World Conference provided a global platform for forward-looking debate on one of the most rapidly changing fields within the global learning landscape. It took stock of transformation in higher education since the 1998 World Conference on Higher Education and addressed the new dynamics likely to shape the strategic agenda for the development of future higher education policies and institutions. In November 2008 Prof. Stroebel attended the Regional Consultative session for Africa in Dakar in preparation for the World Conference.
