The council of the University of Cape Town (UCT) has agreed not to completely block students who owe the institution fees from registering in the current academic year.

Chair of council, Babalwa Ngonyama, said for this academic year, students with fee arrears of more than R10,000 were not permitted to register, but they can appeal that decision.

This came from a meeting the council had earlier on Monday which was meant to consider the difficult issue of unpaid fees that are preventing students from re-registering for the new academic year. concession would apply to students who are South African citizens, SA permanent residents, from SADC countries and from other countries in Africa.

She said proposals would be brought to council for consideration in time for implementation for the 2023 academic year.
