my Studies @ Unisa - University of South Africa

Read through all your
study guides for all the
modules for which you
have registered
Skim read through each of your study guides
(spend about two hours on each). This will give
you an idea of how much work is required
for each module and how difficult the work
will be. Try to do this within a day or two
of receiving your study material, as this will
motivate you to get started.

As a distance education university, we may seem far away, but we are a lot closer
than you think.
myUnisa: your own online learning resource centre
myUnisa is a free, online service offered to all students registered to study through Unisa. This
website gives you direct access to important information such as the study material for the
modules for which you have registered as well as your examination results.
This website also allows you to update your personal details on the Unisa student system and add
or cancel modules. You can join and study online, “chat” to your lecturers and fellow students,
participate in online discussion forums, submit assignments, apply for Library extensions, pay your
student account and get access to all sorts of learning resources.
myUnisa is free for all registered Unisa students. If you do not have your own internet access,
however, you may need to visit an internet cafe, library or learning centre in your area. These
centres provide access to the internet for a small fee.
For all the detail about exactly what you can do on myUnisa and how to join,
go to page 64 of the A-Z guide.
