Milpark Education Ignored Evidence & Mishandled My Exam Case
I am extremely disappointed with how Milpark Education has handled my case, and I want future students to see exactly what happened.
During my exam, I was repeatedly logged out due to system errors. The support chat was unresponsive, so I had to phone for help — even then, the issue persisted. I confirmed with Milpark that no updates were running on my laptop; the problem was on their side.
I initially asked only to finish my exam, NOT to defer it. But after escalating the matter, I was advised by Milpark’s own Senior Programme Manager to apply for a deferral — which I did.
The worst part? On the SAME day I submitted my appeal, Milpark sent me an SMS saying I had already been registered for the exam — without my consent.
Despite sending emails, chats, and screenshots showing exactly what happened, Milpark’s Academic Committee gave me a generic “final decision” that ignored my evidence and the SMS proving their mistake.
This is not just poor service — it’s a failure of accountability. Students trust Milpark with their education and their money, but in my case, they failed to act fairly, investigate properly, or take responsibility for their system errors.

Milpark still has a chance to do the right thing. Until then, I want every prospective student to see how this institution handles serious issues when their systems fail.

- I was advised by your Senior Programme Manager to submit an appeal, which I did.
- On the very same day I app**** for the appeal, I received an SMS from Milpark stating I had already been registered without my consent.
- I provided clear evidence, including emails, screenshots, and the SMS in question, via this link:
👉 https://url.za.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/7MDDCqj5MAcLMK76tZfPsEnN3C
- Who reviewed my evidence and when
- Whether the SMS and email trail I submitted were considered
- How Milpark justifies registering me without my consent

- I did not request, approve, or consent to being registered for the additional module.
- I have proof that directly disputes the basis on which my appeal was dismissed.
- I was denied a fair process, as my evidence was not acknowledged or addressed.
- I cannot be held financially liable for an administrative error that originated within Milpark.
- A reconsideration of this matter by an independent party who will review all evidence, including the SMS Milpark continues to deny.
- A written explanation of who processed the registration and on what authority, in the absence of my consent.
- Full removal of the disputed module and related charges, as I cannot be compelled to pay for a module I never agreed to.

The communication states that I was never registered for the CPBI module. However, I submitted an SMS issued by Milpark showing a provisional registration initiated without my consent. This was dismissed without being meaningfully addressed. The existence of a provisional registration cannot be denied simply because it is inconvenient to the outcome.
While it is stated that my deferral was submitted “late,” it was not acknowledged that I repeatedly sought assistance and was passed from one department to another without support. Delays caused by Milpark cannot fairly be held against me, yet this was used as a basis to dismiss my appeal. That is procedurally unfair.
My submission contained supporting documents, timelines, and communication records. However, the response did not engage with this evidence and instead repeated policy without addressing the substance of my appeal. A fair process requires consideration of all relevant information.
I am expected to comply with timelines, yet Milpark did not meet its own duty to provide assistance or prevent administrative errors. This selective application of rules is unjust and contradicts the principle of fairness.
- A correction of the factual record relating to the registration and deferral timeline; and
- A re-evaluation of the appeal by an independent party who will consider all evidence submitted.
