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)

Central contact centre booklet
► 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

Comprehensive registration information is available at:   www.ufs.ac.za/register

UFS continues its consultation process
2009-10-27

The management of the University of the Free State (UFS) is continuing its consultation process with different stakeholders on the Main Campus in Bloemfontein today (Wednesday, 28 October 2009).

This consultation process is a result of a decision by Prof. Jonathan Jansen, Rector and Vice-Chancellor, to continue discussions around the Reitz matter, which was announced earlier this week.

The first meeting took place with Adv. Mothusi Lepheana of the Human Rights Commission on behalf of the five workers. Adv. Lepheana represents the five workers, as ruled by the court on Monday, 26 October 2009.

During this discussion it was agreed that further processes on the way forward will be announced shortly after the Human Rights Commission has completed its work regarding certain legal issues within the case.

Meetings with other stakeholders, including staff and students, will be taking place continuously.
