Comments on deviation; both over and<br />

under achievement<br />

<br />

<br />

in enrolment targets, as indicated in the<br />

Ministerial Statement of University Funding<br />

<br />

<br />

enrolments is due to the fact that UNISA<br />

<br />

<br />

an improved application process linked to<br />

the implementation of their admission policy<br />

designed to steer students into more relevant<br />

<br />

<br />

graduates and to ensure that the drop-out rate<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

in enrolment targets, as indicated in the<br />

Ministerial Statement of University Funding.<br />

<br />

<br />

Education<br />

It should be noted that HEMIS makes<br />

<br />

universities cannot insist on students indicating<br />

<br />

<br />

foreign students and in particular students from<br />

Namibia do not identify race. Therefore the<br />

numbers reported here may be undercounted<br />
