Q&A<br />

Is there an examination venue nearby?<br />

Go to the examination centre codes section at the back <strong>of</strong> this brochure to check on your closest exam venue.<br />

Travelling long distances can be mentally demanding and expensive.<br />

I completed <strong>my</strong> education in a country other than <strong>South</strong> <strong>Africa</strong>. What should I do?<br />

If you did and you’re registering for a bachelor’s degree you must apply for a certificate <strong>of</strong> conditional matric<br />

exemption through the Access and Exemption Office at <strong>Unisa</strong> (ame@unisa.ac.za).<br />

For all other qualifications, excluding master’s and doctoral qualifications, you must contact the Student Admissions<br />

and <strong>Registration</strong>s Directorate (international@unisa.ac.za) and the <strong>South</strong> <strong>Africa</strong>n Qualifications Authority (SAQA)<br />

for an evaluation <strong>of</strong> your qualifications. The SAQA evaluation must accompany your registration.<br />

Work-Integrated Learning (WIL)<br />

Please check if the qualification chosen has one or more work-integrated learning (WIL) modules. Specific<br />

modules in certain qualifications <strong>of</strong>fered at <strong>Unisa</strong> include workplace-based learning that must be completed.<br />

This experience is called work-integrated learning or experiential learning, and must be completed under the<br />

supervision <strong>of</strong> a suitably qualified and experienced person (mentor). This experience is mandatory for passing that<br />

module and achieving your qualification. Please check, before registering for such a module, that you will be able<br />

to complete this work-integrated learning component. Students who do not have placement at an employer can<br />

contact the relevant academic department for assistance in finding a suitable experiential learning provider to gain<br />

this experience.<br />
