UWC- undoubtedly worst center of learning. That's the meaning. No one answers theirs phones, no correspondence via emails. Been struggling for 3 months to get my refund from this university. Would never ever send my kids this university nor would I give any good recommendations. Uttery disgusted in how they demanded their money in the beginning and now we have to beg for our refund. Not right amd unfair. Think a million times before paying money to this institution. Know for a fact you want to study here.

My PhD supervisor comitted academic fraud against me and I wasted an entire year working on a PhD which she submitted at uj as her own. She never submitted any of my work to UWC and was emotionally abusive towards me. She went as far as forcing me to be her research participant and Psychologically abusing me. I was unknowingly answering her research questions and doing her PhD as she would submit my work at uj.

I was begged not to report it to the HPCSA but today I am suffering because my profile was blocked due to the lack of submissions. I have been unable to register and have only now had my profile activated. I am first year all over again because nothing I did last year was accounted for. Totally appalling and harmful to students mental health and finances. Please review your employees mental health so as not to expose us to narcissistic personalities. Totally unacceptable and would never ever recommend this university

Got nothing short of beautiful memories. Such a lovely institution with state of art facilities. One thing that stood out for me was the cleanines around the university and the top notch security. The university has a lot of world class infrastructure ranging from sports playing areas, lecture halls to mention but a few. Staff are extremely welcoming as well.

My Anywhoo's... It's been a while since I've been back at UWC as a student 😂. Well, everything still looks the same. Some construction happening 🤷‍♀️. But anyways, it was a ghost town. Security is still the same, obviously... The School of Governance looks a bit run down. Apparently since the "Fees must Fall" Era. Other than that, same old same old. Actually got a parking 😂😂😂, that says alot. So.. 👍 And Until next time... 😉
