Fee Remission for Full-Research Students

This applies to all students, i.e. local, SADC and international, who are full-time students (not studying on a part-time basis), who register for the first time for a doctoral degree or a full research master’s degree by dissertation, (i.e. not by coursework and dissertation).

Minimum duration means one year or two semesters in the case of master’s students, and three years or six semesters in the case of doctoral students.
