UNISA Postgraduate Application Dates For 2024-2025

The University of South Africa (UNISA) postgraduate applications for all master’s and doctoral qualifications are open from 01 September to 5 November 2024.

Everyone who wants to start a new qualification, including first-time Unisa applicants, Unisa students who want to start a new qualification, students in their final year of a qualification who want to start a master’s or doctoral qualification, and previously registered master’s and doctoral students who did not register for the 2023 academic year and now want to continue their studies, must apply for admission. At the master’s and doctorate levels, you may only apply for one qualification.

All admissions applications must be submitted online. For the academic year 2024, no self-help office will be accepting applications at the regional offices. Qualification admission is not automatic. It will depend on whether you meet the admission and departmental requirements, as well as whether space is available for the qualification you are pursuing.

Unisa’s Postgraduate Application Process For 2024

Applying for admission to a master’s or doctoral degree comprises three steps:

Step 1: Apply for a student number (only applicable if you do not already have a formal Unisa student number).
Step 2: Apply for admission.
Step 3: Upload the compulsory supporting documents. These documents are displayed in red on the upload platform

How to Apply For UNISA’s Student Number

You must apply for a Unisa student number if you have never before studied towards a formal qualification at Unisa. Student numbers issued for Unisa’s short learning programmes are not valid for formal qualifications. Your formal Unisa student number will be your permanent Unisa student number.

If you are seeking admission to a selection degree and have never previously studied toward a formal certificate at Unisa, you must apply for a Unisa student number. You will not be allowed to enrol for the 2023 academic year if you do not have a valid Unisa student number and are admitted to one of the selection degrees.

An application for a Unisa student number is NOT an application for qualification entrance. You must finish the procedure by applying for admission and attaching the required documentation.

UNISA Postgraduate application fee For 2024

If you want to study for a master’s or a doctorate, you must pay an R125,00 application fee online. Use the Unisa student number as well as the application fee reference number and Send your payment proof to susdepid@unisa.ac.za. Please keep in mind that Unisa does not take cash at any of its locations. However, you may make a cash deposit into the university’s First National Bank account.
