Deciding to study further is not a last-minute call

It's tough deciding whether to study further and what to study, what course to choose. But though it's a tough call to make, you to need to decide at some point and get started on the process of applying and registering.

"Deciding to enrol for a degree is not a last-minute decision," says Natalie Rabson of Boston City Campus and Business College. "Those who do leave it for the last minute end up scrambling to get their paperwork ready and may miss the closing date for registration. Unisa has introduced an application form that must be completed before registration. The process is now longer and more complicated, and some students have suffered because of this."
