When applying to the University of South Africa (Unisa), one of the most critical steps is to upload supporting documents.
These documents include certificates, transcripts, and identification documents, among others.
Failing to provide the necessary documents could result in delays or even rejection of your application.
To ensure a smooth and successful application process, it is essential to follow the rules for uploading supporting documents.
Here are some guidelines to help you navigate the process:
1. Check the requirements
Before you start uploading your documents, ensure that you have all the necessary documents.
Visit the Unisa website or contact the admissions office to find out which documents you need to submit.
2. Scan and save your documents
Once you have all the necessary documents, scan them and save them as separate files.
Ensure that the documents are legible and saved in a compatible format such as PDF, JPEG, or PNG.
3. Rename your documents
Use a naming convention that identifies the document type and your name.
For example, “ID_Jane_Doe” or “Transcript_John_Smith.”
4. Upload your documents
Log in to your Unisa application portal and upload the scanned documents.
Ensure that you upload each document to its respective field.
5. Check the status
After uploading your documents, check the status of your application regularly.
If the status shows “Documents received,” it means that your documents have been successfully uploaded.
6. Follow up
If you have not received a confirmation of receipt within a reasonable time, follow up with the admissions office to ensure that your application is complete.
