Loads of new students filled the University of Zululand Richards Bay campus after registration ceased at the end of February. The University of Zululand Richards Bay Campus registration process has been reported as the slickest Unizul has ever had. They welcome new students from the Communication Science, Commerce and Sport Science departments.

Talking for the Young Communist League (YCL) led SRC at Richards Bay Campus, Nkosinathi Gumede confirmed to UZPRESS the smoothness of the first year and academics registration. “The only challenges we’ve encountered are the long waits (queues?) by students which forces us to work long hours”, said Gumede. “As the SRC we are trying our level best to assist all students especially those who have applied on time”, he added

The main problem that was encountered were students who had not registered and those who did not meet university entry requirements. Since the Richards Bay campus has an overload of students, accommodation and transport have become the top priority for the SRC.
