Several universities to allow late registrations, says Nzimande─── 06:10 Thu, 19 Jan 2023
University registration for the academic year 2023 began on 16 January and is expected to conclude on 20 February 2023. However, several universities will accept late registrations, according to Higher Education Minister Dr Blade Nzimande.
According to SABC News, Nzimande assured current and prospective students that the announcement and release of their matriculation results on Thursday will not affect their readiness for the 2023 academic year of post-secondary education and training.
The Department advises prospective students to continue to liaise with the universities of their choice through their communication channels.
"In order to further assist prospective students, the department has activated the services of the Central Application Clearing House (CACH) to assist individuals in accessing university, college and skills development opportunities. The system will be open from 24 of January to 31 March 2023."
NSFAS has reminded students that once the institution has confirmed that an academic offer has been made, application results will be sent to all applicants. This will be communicated to all students via SMS, email, and myNSfas accounts.
