Returning students can register for the 2025 academic year during the designated registration period. However, they must have received the necessary registration details from the university.
Unisa fees depend on the qualification, number of modules, and additional factors. These include prescribed student fees, registration costs, and miscellaneous fees for supplementary study materials.
All required fees must be paid into Unisa’s official bank account using the correct reference number to finalise registration. Payments must be made before the registration closing date.
Once registration is confirmed, students must log in to myUnisa student portal. This platform provides access to essential study materials, including tutorial letters, ensuring students are fully equipped for their studies.
Unisa has reiterated the importance of following all registration and payment procedures to avoid delays in the enrolment process.
