REGISTRATION

Registration dates

• The registration programme will be announced in the media. Students must abide by the registration programme and relevant deadlines.
  
  

• No student shall be admitted as a candidate for more than one qualification at the same time without the special permission of Senate. No student registered at the University of Namibia shall be permitted to enroll as a student at another university at the same time without special permission of Senate.
  
  

• Senate may, after consultation with Faculties, restrict the number of persons who may be permitted to register for a particular course of study, in which case Faculties may, from amongst the persons qualified to register for such a course of study, select those who will be permitted to register.
  
  

• On first registration an original certificate serving as admission qualification must be submitted together with an original identity document or any other documents needed to establish the identity of the student, plus such other documents as specified per faculty or in the letters of admission.
  
  

• International students should note that they need to submit their Namibian School Leaving Certificate (Grade 12) if they have attended a Secondary School in Namibia.
  
  

• International students should note that only original School Leaving Certificates or an Advice of Results with a confirmation from the relevant Examination Authority stating that certificates will be issued during the first year of registration, will be accepted. No student will be allowed a second registration without submitting their original School Leaving Certificate.
  
  

• Students should ensure that they are registered for the correct course of study and module(s) (e.g. check course / module codes and correct semester). No additional registration will be allowed after the deadline as annually determined by the Calendar and Timetable Committee.

REGISTRATION FOR NON-DEGREE / NON-DIPLOMA PURPOSES

• A student who does not wish to register for a degree or diploma, but is only interested in (a) particular module(s) may register for non-degree / non-diploma purposes if he / she meets the admission requirements for the particular module(s).
  
  

• Modules followed for non-degree / non-diploma purposes are subject to the same conditions and other stipulations as those applicable to students following these for degree or diploma purposes.
  
  
  

• Modules in which a student has passed will not necessarily be recognised as credits for a future degree or diploma. The granting of such credit may be considered only if the student has qualified for admission to study for the relevant degree or diploma.
  
  

• Students registering for non-degree / non-diploma purposes will be restricted to two (2) modules per academic year.

REGISTRATION AS A GUEST STUDENT

• obtains the written permission from the relevant lecturer(s) to attend the lecture(s);
  
  

• registers as guest student (including payment of the prescribed fees and submission of relevant documents) and submits such proof of registration to the relevant lecturer(s).

• A guest student is not entitled to formal evaluation and certification, i.e., he / she will write no tests or examinations and will receive no credit for attending lectures in (a) specific module(s).

• A guest student is entitled to rights / privileges as determined by the Office of the Registrar.
