Can I register for only one subject?

Yes. A person who does not wish to register for a full programme, but is only interested in specific subjects or modules, may register as an occasional student for non-qualification purposes, provided that he/she:

  • Complies with the prescribed admission requirements;
  • Completes the prescribed application form;
  • Obtains the written permission of the relevant head of department to attend lectures;
  • Registers as a special student (including payment of the prescribed fees);
  • Submits proof of registration to the relevant lecturer(s).
