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 />

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 />
