Polite when recruiting students, but terror in reality!

I am Msizi Ziphozonke Mabaso, ID ***, a South African ciitizen. I currently live in KwaZulu Natal at Ulundi. I registered with MANCOSA in the year 2020, July intake for a Masters degree in Business Administration, (MBA). I then passed all the modules prescribed by the institute and the demands or requirements of the program up until I reached the dissertation stage. It was in the year 2022 when I was contacted by the institution that I was suspected of plagiarism. I was then called for a hearing where I made it clear that I did not plagiarize intentionally. I also with humility made it clear to the panel that the academic world or environment was not the first one at MANCOSA, I have a Diploma in Scholastic Philosophy and an Honours Degree in Theology and I had never had a case of academic dishonesty in about 80 modules done for these 2c mentioned programs completed in the past.

Harshly I was told by the head of the panel via an email that I am expelled from the Institution, and I cannot apply for any other program, yet I paid over R90 000.00 for this program! This harsh and inhuman decision was taken because I had refused to start from afresh my thesis with a new topic, rather I had requested that I repeat that chapter where plagiarism was suspected. I ask hello peter to help me with this unfairness rendered to me, R90 000.00 is not a joke! I wish to continue with my thesis and rectify mistakes or be granted an honours degree with the same particular program and graduate. If not I shall expose the Institution to other media houses and political parties for such arrogant decisions. Please Hellopeter, help.
