The University of South Africa (Unisa) has opened its exam remark application period for final exams.
While some end-of-year exams are still underway and are expected to conclude on the 6 December 2024, Unisa has begun the process of releasing exam results.
Many students will be satisfied with their results in the 2024 October/November 2024 Unisa exams. However, some students will not.
Students who are unhappy with their results can apply for a Unisa exam re-mark.
Unisa Exam Re-mark Applications Now Open
Unisa students have until 31 January 2025 to request a re-mark of their exam scripts or purchase a copy.
Remarks can be requested online via myUnisa or by emailing [email protected].
To purchase a copy of your exam script, students must email [email protected] with their student number in the subject line.
Remarks are only available for specific mark ranges (35%-49% or 68%-74%) and scripts flagged for academic dishonesty cannot be reviewed.
