Submitting of Results and Documents:
School learners must ensure that all examination results from Grade 11 until September of Grade 12 are submitted. Failure to do such may result in delays within the student’s application process. You might find that you applied early in Grade 12 and thus only sent in your final Grade 11 results.

If this is true, as the year progresses and you receive more results keep sending them through to UNISA, that way they will have all your results by the time finals come around.

Transferring students should too ensure that all transcripts and academic records are submitted as early as possible as well as that a final transcript of current studies being undertaken reaches the Admissions Office as soon as possible after receipt.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact UNISA.
Dates to remember:
Application Dates:
For applications in 2024 and onwards, there will be only one application period per academic year for both semesters.
Application Closing Date: To be announced, applications open in August.
