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

First-years battle for athletics glory
2014-01-24

 

First-year students had their first taste of sports rivalry at Kovsies, taking part in the annual first-year athletics meeting. The students engaged in friendly battle on the track and field, a battle that saw Wag-‘n-Bietjie, Vishuis and Conlaurês residences crowned as winners.

Wag-‘n-Bietjie won their fourth consecutive best female residence trophy. Conlaurês beat Outeniqua, Imperium and Kagiso residences to be crowned Co-ed residence winners.

A highlight on the Kovsie calendar, the athletics meeting was attended by hundreds of first-year and senior students who flocked to the Pellies Park stadium. Dressed in colourful attire, spectators and athletes braved a short, but welcome burst of rain to cheer on their favourites. Spurred on by Rudi Buys, Dean of Students, and members of the Student Representative Council, Kovsiegees reigned supreme.
