Petersen invites and encourages all matriculants to apply at the University of the Free State to enjoy Kovsie Life.

“Universities across the country are not only concerned with how prospective students enter, but also how they exit successfully – within the minimum amount of time, with an appropriate qualification that will enable them to start earning an income and contributing to the economy."

“Whichever university you choose, ensure that you select a place where you have a supportive, friendly, enjoyable and intellectually stimulating environment where academic excellence forms the core,” Petersen concluded.
