UNISA qualifications and modules guide

by  Jedidah Tabalia

The University of South Africa, famous as UNISA, is one of the most competitive educational hubs in the region. For this reason, the institution attracts thousands of both local and international applicants every year. As such, UNISA continues to train and graduate competent learners who are adaptable in different industries. UNISA qualifications are intricately structured such that learners must meet all the necessary module requirements within the required time-frame before graduating. This approach serves as the pillar sustaining a high profile status for the institution.

Career guidance is helpful before settling on a study program, that is why it is important to know the modules required to complete your studies. For you to graduate, UNISA dictates that for each qualification, you must pass a specific number of modules and NQF level credits within a specific period of time. Each academic year, there is a minimum number of modules/credits that you have to pass so as to re-register and proceed to the next level of your qualification. It is therefore important for learners to be aware of the UNISA modules/credits under the qualification that they are pursuing.

How many modules can I register for per semester at UNISA?

UNISA does not allow the registration of more than 60 NQF representing five modules each with 12 credits. The five units, however, do not include supplementary or aegrotat examinations carried forward from previous years of study. Modules pursued for non-diploma, or non-degree purposes contribute to the maximum number of credits allowed. Similarly, learners who opt for yearly module registration must not exceed 120 NQF credits for each year. Prospective learners are, therefore, required to plan their studies with strict reference to these structured study guidelines.

How much is a module at UNISA?

Study fees at UNISA are generally lower than other higher learning institutions of its caliber. It is, however, reasonable to note that studying is a worthwhile investment more at UNISA where cost depends on the number of modules and individual learner qualifications. On average, most learners register between 4 to 6 modules every year at a price ranging between R1000 and R2000 per module. Note that these figures are subject to periodical review. Besides, learners incur additional costs trying to meet the cost of their learning materials.
