CURRICULUM APPROVAL
Curriculum Approval will be done in two phases:
Phase 1: A limited period of online Curriculum Approval will be available for the following students:

Faculty of Law: all returning students
Faculty of Pharmacy: all returning students
Faculty of Science: all returning students
Faculty of Education: Online Curriculum Approval WILL NOT be available for Faculty of Education students. All Education candidates are required to do face-to-face curriculum approval on Friday 9 February.
Students will login to ROSS and select subjects online. If the subject choices are declined, the student will be provided with feedback and allowed to make further choices (except for Humanities - see above). If the subject choices are all in order, the curriculum will be approved.
Phase 2: A period of face-to-face Curriculum Approval will be available for all students of all Faculties who did not participate in Phase 1 Curriculum Approval or who did not receive approval for their curriculum during Phase 1.

INITIAL FEE CLEARANCE - 19 January 2024 (final deadline for residence allocation confirmation)
The 2024 Fees booklet will be published on the website from early December 2023. Please ensure that this information is forwarded to the person responsible for your fees and that they are made aware of the deadline.
Ensure that your Initial Fee is cleared by the person paying your fees or that your sponsor has confirmed renewal of your sponsorship. You can check your clearance through ROSS or by contacting the Student Bureau (046) 6038276 or the Student Fees Office (046)6038153. If you would like written confirmation email student-fees@ru.ac.za or registrar@ru.ac.za and expect a response within 48-72 hours.
If you have problems meeting the Initial Fee deadline, please contact the Student Fees Office in writing. Please note that the Fees Office is the only office that can authorise extensions to the deadline.
RESIDENCE ALLOCATIONS (WHERE RELEVANT)
Residence Allocations will be allocated on a daily basis as Initial Fees are cleared. If you have missed the initial fee deadline of 19 January 2024 your residence allocation will automatically be cancelled. You will be put on a waiting list thereafter if you wish to apply for residence.
ADMINISTRATIVE REGISTRATION
In order to register administratively you need:
1. South African Students
a) Registration Fee clearance - all students
2. International Students
a) Passport with a study visa valid for the whole year.
b) Proof of medical aid cover, offered or recognised by the 老虎机游戏_pt老虎机-平台*官网 – these documents should be emailed to internationaloffice@ru.ac.za prior to administrative registration being cleared.
KEEP YOUR STUDENT CARD
You are required to present your current student card when on campus. If you do not keep your card, you will have to obtain a replacement card and pay the standard card replacement fee.
LATE REGISTRATION
All students whose courses begin on Monday, 12 February 2024 will be charged a late registration fee if they have not administratively registered AND completed curriculum approval by 12h00 on Saturday 10 February 2024.
The fee will be waived only in exceptional circumstances. Reasons which would be acceptable would be such as those which would lead to a successful aegrotat examination application. Requests for a fee waiver, together with supporting documentation, should be addressed to the Manager: Academic Administration at academicadmin@ru.ac.za.
You are reminded that students are not allowed to start courses after the end of the second week of lectures, and so your late registration cannot be later than 23 February 2024.
CHECKING REGISTRATION
It is always wise to check your registration on ROSS to double-check and confirm the subjects for which you have registered.
