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

Kovsies 7’s, the University of the Free State’s (UFS) rugby sevens team, took part in two Varsity Sport Sevens tournaments (23 and 24 November 2012, and 30 November and 1 December 2012), as well as the USSA Rugby Sevens tournament (26 and 27 November 2012).

Dougie Heymans of KovsieSport says he is proud of the team. “In the three tournaments over a period of ten days, the team was able to win something at each tournament. At the Varsity Sports 7’s at Plettenberg Bay, the team won the plate competition. At the USSA tournament at George, they were placed third.”

The highlight of the series of matches played was when Kovsies won the Varsity Sports 7’s Tournament at Margate.
