my Registration @ Unisa 2013 - University of South Africa

Minimum amount payable at registration
A minimum fee amount is payable before the closing dates for registration for each module or paper for which you
register. If this amount is not paid before the closing date for registration, the university will not be able to process your
registration. After paying the minimum amount, the outstanding balance must be paid by the relevant dates into the
university’s Standard Bank account. This fee will be forfeited should the respective module be cancelled.
Students applying for Matriculation Exemption please note that the Matriculation Exemption fee must be included
together with the minimum fee amount payable. Compulsory miscellaneous fees, where applicable, are also payable on
registration. These include the levy for students in foreign countries and levies for additional study material.
All fees must be paid into the correct bank account with the correct reference number (see page 31 of this brochure) or
else the university will not be able to process your registration before the relevant closing date. In the case where a letter
from an employer/sponsor assumes responsibility for payment, the university can provide the employer/sponsor with a
quotation. Registration will only be activated upon receipt of the minimum payment by the relevant closing date. Unisa
does not issue invoices to companies or government departments.
Dishonoured payments
If a cheque or credit card is tendered in payment of the minimum amount which must accompany a student’s
application for registration, and payment of that cheque or credit card is later returned unpaid by the bank, the student’s
registration will be cancelled by the university. Such registrations will not be reinstated unless the student’s full tuition
fees for the year or semester are paid in the form of cash, electronic transfer or bank guaranteed cheque into the
university’s bank account, or via debit card payment at any of the Unisa regional offices before the relevant closing date.
On re-registration of the cancelled modules, the student’s account will be debited with a once-off administrative levy, per
dishonoured transaction.
Overdue accounts and accounts handed over
for collection
No student will be allowed to re-register with the university until all outstanding debt of previous registration periods
has been settled in full. Students with long overdue balances on their accounts may be handed over to a third party for
collection. Any collection/legal costs that may arise from the account being handed over will be for the account of the
student. Payment or arrangements thereof of overdue accounts handed over for collection should be made with the
collection company concerned.
