A Journey of Gratitude and Excellence with Stadio University

Dear Stadio University Team,

I hope this review finds you well. I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude to Stadio University and, in particular, to Vandhana for the incredible support and care I have received during my educational journey with you.

My journey with Stadio has truly been a dream come true. As a single mother, I waited 18 years to complete my degree, placing my sons’ needs above my own after their father passed away when they were just 3 years and 10 months old. Despite the challenges of navigating the system as a former special school student and the additional hurdles placed by the matriculation board, Stadio became my beacon of hope.

Unisa’s foundation programme enabled me to pursue my studies, but the road to obtaining a matric exemption has been fraught with difficulties. Despite having a qualification higher than NQF Level 7 and completing the foundation programme, Unisa refused to provide the necessary letter for my matriculation exemption application simply because I am not registered with them for the upcoming year. However, Stadio and Vandhana, though not responsible for this process, stepped in with open arms and a willingness to assist when others failed me.

Completing my four-year degree with Stadio has been an exceptional experience. The care, guidance, and dedication from your lecturers have been remarkable. The online assistance, structured classes, and clear expectations made the process not just manageable but enjoyable. Your holistic approach to student development prepared me thoroughly for the workforce.

I would like to give special thanks to Vandhana, whose compassion and professionalism stood out during this challenging time. She embodies the values that make Stadio a nurturing and supportive environment for students.

Thank you for being a source of unwavering support and for making my educational dream a reality. I will always recommend Stadio with a smile on my face and a peaceful heart, knowing how deeply you care about your students' success.

With sincere gratitude and admiration,
