The University of South Africa (Unisa) has opened Semester 2 registration for both undergraduate and honours degree programmes. Students who have received a placement offer at the country’s largest university can now register.
Unisa employs an Open Distance e-learning (ODeL) approach, meaning students study from home and do not attend any in-person classes. In recent years, the institution has also begun conducting its examinations online. This flexible learning model has attracted a diverse range of students, regardless of their schedules and work commitments.
The university confirmed that Semester 2 registration for all undergraduate qualifications, honours degrees, and postgraduate diplomas with semester modules is now open from 28 June to 19 July 2024.

Previously, Unisa indicated that Semester 2 registration would only commence on 8 July 2024, and close on 19 July 2024. This announcement gave prospective Unisa students a longer registration period to secure their place at the country’s largest university.
