UJ has hurt & disappointed me a lot!!!
I'd like to warn all parents and people who are interested in studying at UJ to always have other options on where to study, more especially if you have been conditionally admitted & provisionally selected. Provisionally selected is a way for them to reject you leniently (they've been doing this for years now). They made us travel to write a test for HR & Industrial psychology only for them to tell us that they'll accept only 60 students for honours. There was maybe about 200 & something students or even more in the the test venue. I prepared myself for the test for 2 months only to receive a test that has 30 multiple choice qs! We also thought the test was going to take 3 hours according to the email we received. Writing the test was a horrible experience for me as one of the invigilators of the test was very rude towards me & the test instructions were not clear enough. For a person who was writing a test at UJ for the 1st time, I was really lost on how I should answer it that I ended up doing silly mistakes, but luckily I was able to rectify them. They did not even give me a chance to register. They put me on the waiting list till the last week of registration. UJ used to be my dream university, but not anymore. I got rejected for the 2nd time now & my undergrad marks are good enough for me to do honours. I'm so hurt by their poor communication & for them to put me on the waiting list for weeks like a clown knowing very well that they planning to reject me. I could have made other plans on time to study elsewhere. To make things worse, I sold my furniture just so that I can pay for my registration fees on time. My family & I really went through a lot, especially financially while we were traveling for me to write that test. I also spent & wasted a lot of money on making several certified copies for them & contacting them for assistance. I'm no more applying there again. I'm done with that institute.
