Outstanding fees

Students with outstanding fees

Students who have outstanding fees are still welcome to attend their graduation ceremony. The sheath received at the ceremony will not contain the official graduation documents. Instead, it will include a reminder to settle the outstanding balance on the student account. Graduation documents will be issued as soon as the account has been paid in full.

Students with outstanding balances funded by NSFAS

Students funded by the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) who still have an outstanding balance are still welcome to attend their graduation ceremony. The sheath received at the ceremony will only contain their academic record. The official degree certificate will be issued once NSFAS has settled the account.

Declarations

Students with outstanding debt, including NSFAS-funded students, may request a declaration confirming the completion of their academic programme. Requests can be sent to [email protected]. Please include your SU student number and your identity number, and indicate whether you prefer an English or an Afrikaans declaration. 

Payment deadline

To ensure that students receive their graduation documents at the ceremony, please note that all outstanding amounts must be settled by 12:00 on Friday, 13 March 2026.
