Can I register for my second year at Unisa if I haven’t received my results yet?

Yes, you can proceed with registration for your second year at Unisa even before receiving your first-year results.

However, if you haven’t met the minimum requirements to progress, your registration might be cancelled.

If you wish to pursue a different qualification in your second year, you’ll need to submit a new application for admission during the designated application period. This process is separate from registration.

Where can I find my student number?

Your student number is a unique identifier assigned to you upon your initial registration with Unisa.

You can find it on any official communication you’ve received from the university, such as your acceptance letter or student ID card.

Unisa provides a fee calculator on their website to help you estimate the cost.

What if I miss the registration deadline?

Unfortunately, registering after the deadline is generally not permitted. Unisa may however offer a late registration window with a penalty fee.

How do I know if my registration is successful?

Once you’ve completed the online registration process and settled your fees, you’ll receive a confirmation email from Unisa. This email will prove your successful registration.
