Semester 2 registration is now open at the University of South Africa (Unisa). Students are encouraged to register promptly and secure their place in an undergraduate or honours degree and start Unisa Open Distance e-learning (ODeL) programmes.
The registration period officially opened on 28 June 2024. However, many students are wondering how long they will have before the registration period closes.

Semester 2 registration for all undergraduate qualifications, honours degrees, and postgraduate diplomas with semester modules will be open from 28 June to 19 July 2024.
