CURRENT STUDENTS

REGISTRATION 2023: Extended date for 2023 registration – 10 March 2023.

 

APPEALS: If you have submitted an appeal via your portal, the outcome will be reflected on your UP student portal under the Communications section. 

We know that you may be feeling anxious if you have not received a response to your appeal.  We would like to bring to your attention that most of the appeals submitted have now been reviewed by the Faculty of Humanities Appeals Committee.

We are working tirelessly to complete the appeals process and upload the results on the system, following our scheduled meetings.  As soon as a decision is taken, it is conveyed to the student.

As you know, we extended the deadline for appeals several times. This was to allow as many students as possible to appeal. However, students are assured that they will all receive the outcomes of their faculty appeals before the final date of registration – 3 March 2023.

Please note that the University has given students who lodged appeals access to ClickUP to keep abreast of what is going on with academic life. HODs have also been made aware that some students will only be able to register late and were asked to accommodate them when they resume lectures.

When you arrive on campus, please present the Security Officers with your student card and the exclusion letter to gain access.

Should the outcome of your appeal be negative, access to ClickUP and the campus will, unfortunately, be revoked.
