As a prospective student at the University of South Africa (UNISA), one of the most important steps after submitting your application is to check your application status.
This allows you to stay up to date with the progress of your application and make informed decisions about your academic future.
Application Status Checking Process
To check your application status, you will need to use the UNISA online application tool, known as myUNISA. This tool allows you to track the progress of your application, receive communication from the university, and perform various other tasks related to your application. To access myUNISA, you will need to follow these steps:
You can access myUNISA by visiting the UNISA website and clicking on the “myUNISA” link. You will then be prompted to enter your student number and password.
If you have not yet received your student number, you can use your application reference number instead.
Once you have logged in to myUNISA, you can check your application status by clicking on the “Application Status” link.
This will take you to a page that displays the current status of your application.
Tracking Your Application Progress
When you check your application status, you will see one of several possible statuses. These statuses indicate the progress of your application and provide you with information about what you need to do next. Here are some of the most common application statuses:
If your application status shows as “Received”, this means that UNISA has received your application and is in the process of capturing it onto the system.
If your application status shows as “Processed”, this means that your application has been successfully captured onto the system and is now being evaluated by the relevant faculty.
If your application status shows as “Approved”, this means that your application has been successful and you have been accepted to study at UNISA.
If your application status shows as “Rejected”, this means that your application has been unsuccessful, and you have not been accepted to study at UNISA.
If your application status shows as “Pending”, this means that your application is still being evaluated and a decision has not yet been made.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
There are several common issues that you may encounter when trying to check your application status. Here are a few troubleshooting tips to help you resolve these issues:
If you are having trouble logging in to myUNISA, make sure that you are using the correct student number and password. If you have forgotten your password, you can reset it by clicking on the “Forgot Password” link.
If you are unable to see your application status, make sure that you are looking in the correct place. Your application status should be displayed on the “Application Status” page.
If you are experiencing technical difficulties, such as a slow or unresponsive system, try clearing your browser cache and cookies. This can often resolve technical issues and improve the performance of the system.
Using the UNISA Website for Application Status Updates
In addition to using myUNISA, you can also check your application status on the UNISA website. To do this, follow these steps:
Visit the UNISA website and click on the “Study @ UNISA” link.
Click on the “Application Status” link.
Enter your student number or application reference number and password.
