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 Pays Tribute To Beyers Naudé
2004-09-17

The University of the Free State (UFS) has extended its heartfelt condolences to the late Dr Beyers Naudé in a letter to the family.

“Dr Naudé’s contribution to the establishment of a non-racial and democratic society in South Africa will forever remain one of the most inspiring chapters of our history,” said Prof Frederick Fourie, Rector and Vice-Chancellor of the UFS.

“As a historically Afrikaans higher education institution committed to building such a society, we celebrate Dr Naudé’s courage in reaching out across the racial, language, religious and cultural divides of the past and in building a shared South Africaness,” said Prof Fourie.

“We need to emulate Dr Naudé’s spirit of commitment to a common humanity and a common nationhood,” said Prof Fourie.
