2017-02-10
The registration period for all new and returning students on the Bloemfontein and Qwaqwa Campuses has been extended until Friday 17 February 2017.
The extension is granted in the light of a request received from the Transitional Student Council on the Bloemfontein Campus, in consultation with the Student Representative Council on the Qwaqwa Campus, as well as a request from Universities South Africa (USAf) to universities around the country to extend the registration period due to NSFAS and funding problems experienced by students.
The registration process will continue in the Callie Human Centre and Examination Centre on the Bloemfontein Campus and the Nelson Mandela Hall on the Qwaqwa Campus until Friday 17 February 2017.
Students are advised that they will need to report to their respective faculties for academic advice before they can be registered.
