Cancellations
4.1
Submitting your completed application form does not necessarily
mean that you will be accepted. For example: All programmes only
allow a limited number of students and the specific course may
already be full.
If you want to cancel your short course attendance, you must do so
in writing at least seven days before the start of the course. Your
course fees will be repaid to you minus a 5% administration fee.
4.2
This application is only for admission to the course. The University
will not make any travel or accommodation arrangements unless
this has been specifically agreed to between you and the University.
If you cancel your attendance less than seven days before the start
of the course, a cancellation fee of 15% will be deducted from your
course fees to pay for the costs that the University has incurred in
preparation for your attendance.
4.3
If you cancel your attendance less than 24 hours before the start of
the course, only 10% of your course fees will be repaid to you.
4.4
The abovementioned deductions will also apply if your employer or
another company or institution paid for your fees.
4.5
There may be instances where the University decides that your
circumstances made it impossible for you to attend and will waive
the deductions. This will be entirely the University’s decision and
you may be required to provide supporting documentation.
Rules of the University
During your time as a student you must follow the rules and
regulations of the University, which are published in Part 1
(General) of the University Calendar. The University Calendar can be
collected from the Administration Building, Block A, Ryneveld

expressions and representing them as your own original work) is

Exclusion of the University’s liability
The following terms are very important, because they limit your ability to
bring a claim against the University if a short course is cancelled or
postponed or if you are injured or your property lost or damaged while
you are on University property.
5.1
The University may decide to postpone or cancel any short course
because of insufficient demand or on any other reasonable grounds.
You have no claim against the University except for the repayment
of any course fees that you have already paid.
5.2
The University will not be responsible for any harm to you or your
property except for claims that fall under 5.3. This means that the
University will not be liable to you or your dependants even while
you are:
5.2.1 on University property;
5.2.2 participating in any activity relating to your studies or
training;
5.2.3 participating in any other recreational activities;
5.2.4 using any of the University’s premises, buildings, equipment
or facilities; or
5.2.5 staying in or visiting at any University residence or other
accommodation.
5.3
6
You will only be able to bring a claim for harm to you or your
property if the harm is caused because you had access to property
or equipment that was defective or unsafe, or if you were not given
proper instructions. In other words, you can only bring a claim that
falls within Section 61 of the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008.

and any information about you that is received from third parties
