1. Find your qualifications and choose your modules.

Each Unisa qualification is structured in such a way that you need to pass a certain number of NQF-level credits within a certain amount of time to graduate.

It is also very important that you manage your studies and pass the number of NQF-level credits for which you register each semester or year. Please take note of Unisa’s admission and re-admission rules and the Unisa rules for students.

Each qualification page provides guidelines on how to do this successfully.

2. Calculate your study and other fees.

It is important to assess the full cost of your studies before confirming your modules for registration. What you can afford will affect the number of modules for which you can register.

UNISA fees differ depending on your qualification, the number of modules, and so on, but basically, they include prescribed student fees (including registration fees), miscellaneous fees, and fees for additional study material.

You can choose your modules and calculate your fees during the online registration process.

Unisa student fee information for the 2023 academic year will be available on January 5, 2024.

3. Complete and submit your registration.

Successful applicants and returning students must register for studies through UNISA in 2024.

• Applicants (new applicants and Unisa students who applied for admission to a new qualification) may only register if they have received an offer of placement from Unisa and have accepted the offer online.
• Re-registering students can register for the 2023 academic year during the relevant registration period once they have received their registration details from Unisa.
• Should you wish to change to an alternative qualification, please apply online for the alternative qualification during the prescribed application period.
• If you would like to cancel your registration or any part thereof, please take note of Unisa’s cancellation dates.

4. Pay Your Study Fees

5. After Registration

It may take a little time before you receive confirmation of your registration. While you’re waiting, it’s a good idea to start preparing for your studies.

Once you’ve received confirmation of your registration, you need to register on myUnisa, the university’s online student portal, where you can download your study material, including your tutorial letters.
