I have had a great experience studying at Unisa because I can easily do anything at my convenient time while studying. I can get part-time jobs and still study. I don’t have to leave home for classes instead I just join the zoom classes instead.

UNISA is an open distance learning institute and with its e-learning services and tools, it has made it simple and easy for students to succeed in their studies. The university is going to lengths to ensure that its students are well equipped with e-learning services and also offers counselling to those who are finding it difficult to cope with their studies. It offers so much more that you get to enjoy the full experience of being an online uni student.

The first year was great and going well it was in 2020.Then covid hit to be honest didn’t cope well due to everything was based online and at the time i didn’t own a laptop i was dependent on the university’s computer lamp,because of everything based online i struggled resulting in failing half of the modules i registered that year.Due to load-shedding(power) crisis in south africa you have to race against time for everything assignments,teams class and their websites always shutting down,example when i study at night its good for me but now with their website because everything is online its rare to have hard copies of the module,sometimes i wake up there’s no electricity or the websites is down.Just like now the system is down i can’t do my portfolio so those are the difficulties of studying online at UNISA if they can fix their sytems i believe they can accommodate everyone.
