UP will be starting their second semester through online teaching and learning methods from 4 May until 17 June. Students who are in financial need and require devices will have these delivered to them soon to ensure that they too have access to e-learning.

UP Connect is a unique portal that can be accessed through an internet browser on any device here. https://connect.up.ac.za/ Here, students can find all content from UP and they won’t be using any data to access it, no matter what network you’re on.
