Rhodes University in Grahamstown has released a
circular stating that it will withhold the June results of students who owe 50%
or more of fees.
Speaking to the media student
representative council president Gift Sandi says the university’s decision has
shocked the student body.
Rhodes previously had a minimum initial payment which stated that
students pay 50% of their fees upfront.
This
payment was removed after the nationwide #FeesMustFall campaign to make way for
a 10% registration fee.
Sandi says while the SRC understands the situation the institution finds
itself in, it does not agree with the circular being released a day prior to
the day results were meant to be released.
