For Immediate Release Dear Fellow Students, in our pursuit of academic excellence, it has become evident that there are pressing issues hindering our progress within UNISA's administrative support systems. As representatives of the Regional Student Representative Council (RSRC) at the University of South Africa's (UNISA) Northeastern Region, we are compelled to address these concerns with urgency and determination. From challenges with NSFAS support to bureaucratic hurdles in disciplinary inquiries, and from the complexities of MOOC tests to the labyrinthine registration processes, we understand the frustration and obstacles many of us face in accessing vital administrative assistance.

These issues not only impede our academic journeys but also reflect broader systemic deficiencies that demand immediate attention and rectification. In response, we are mobilising our collective voice through a petition aimed at effecting tangible change within UNISA's administrative support framework. By uniting as a student body and articulating our concerns with clarity and conviction, we can compel university management to prioritise the enhancement of these crucial services. We implore every student who has encountered challenges within UNISA's administrative support systems, as outlined in the heading "UNISA Student Administrative Support NSFAS, Disciplinary Inquiries, MOOC Tests, Registration, and Offer Assistance," to join us in signing this petition.

Together, we can amplify our voices and catalyse meaningful reforms that will benefit all members of our academic community. As representatives of the RSRC, we stand in solidarity with you, our fellow students, in this endeavor. We are committed to advocating tirelessly on your behalf and ensuring that your concerns are heard and addressed by university authorities. Thank you for your participation and support in this critical initiative. Let us harness the power of our collective voice to bring about positive change.

In solidarity,

Chairperson,

RSRC Mr. Justice Phuti Molebela +27 72 215 7792

I have been spending my nights reading the stories you are sending about the roadblocks you face just trying to register for classes. We are currently compiling these accounts into a formal report to present to the university administration so they can no longer ignore the reality of our struggle.

Seeing this momentum unfold validates every sleepless night I spent struggling with these broken administrative systems. We are finally proving that our frustrations are not isolated incidents but a shared reality that management can no longer ignore.

I would like Unisa to bring back provision of data if not the allowance should be raised

I fully support this petition. As students, we rely on fair communication, reasonable deadlines, and proper academic support to succeed. Our concerns deserve to be taken seriously, and I hope the university responds constructively to improve the learning experience for all students.

The data allocation is impractical, we cannot have 20GB for night owl and only 10GB for during the day, while we study and do a lot of things during the day and not at night

The administrative processes of UNISA have left me with a bill I could have cleared earlier but due to accounting errors I must pay. I have a disciplinary action which I don't know if it has been resolved or not, since no feedback and my marks are still withheld. Currently there's also issues with NSFAS so my registration is problematic and there's no information about what's happening, I went to campus for all 3 problems and still no solution.
