Visiting universities and learning more about them is an essential part of prospective students’ journey into higher education. The University of the Free State (UFS) has launched the Kovsie-Connect Virtual Experience.
This is an initiative of the Student Recruitment Services in partnership with the Office for International Affairs to give the modern-day prospective student an experience of what the University of the Free State can offer. The Kovsie-Connect Virtual Experience is an interactive online platform that allows prospective students to engage and learn more about the UFS from the comfort of their own homes.
The Virtual Experience is tailor-made for local and international prospective students with the aim of providing an overview of academic offerings, facilities, and student life through a series of online documents, pre-recorded videos, and virtual tours.
The virtual format allows for easy accessibility and convenience, as potential students can attend the event from anywhere in the world without the need for travel. This experience aims to provide students with the information they need to make an informed decision and Choose the UFS!
