University of South Africa - UNISA Speciality : Psychology
programme: Psychology + Philosophy

UNISA offers affordable and flexible online distance learning to full-time and part-time students, that has recently adopted a hybrid model that caters to high school graduates and full-time employees. This means that most courses now offer lectures, lecture materials and recordings to bridge the gap for high schoolers, while still catering to those running on a different schedule!

Lecturers and tutors are available and communicate often through announcement portals and emails to support students in their learning. Lectures are clear, informative and interactive, ensuring no student is left behind despite the large class sizes, resulting in a caring student culture that goes the extra mile through WhatsApp groups for assistance and clarity on due dates, missed announcements and other key information! I personally enjoy the freedom to study on my own terms, through quality study guides, lectures and support from the university and students. I highly recommend it if you are an independent learner that can take responsibility for your own time management and pedagogical success but remember, you will have plenty of support if you need it. Good luck with your applications!
