Let’s discuss it!

How To Check Fort Hare Application Status?

In simple words, you need to visit the official website of UFH to check the application status, but it is not that simple, especially when you are doing it for the first time. You become puzzled and don’t recognize the right column from where you can see the updated application status on the UFH website.

Don’t sweat it out! This is because I am personally writing this article for your assistance.

Well, you can check the UFH application status on any gadget like PC, iPad, laptop, tablet, iPhone, etc., but I highly encourage you to use a PC or laptop to do so because it will be easier and more feasible for you. Also, you can save the password on Chrome and other browsers on the laptop easily for your ease.

• To check the UFH application status 2023, you need to open the browsing application on your device, for example, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, etc.
• After opening the tab, please enter the following address in the field for the URL that is typically located at the top of the browsing: ufh.ac.za/apply/
• Once you enter the URL for the official website of UFH on the tab, press enter, and the home page will be visible on the screen to you. Now click on the application status to check it on the UFH website.
• When you tap on the tracker, it will ask few details, including username, password, identity number, and full name.
• Please enter all the details carefully and press the “Next” button that is present at the bottom of the screen.
• It is to inform you that when you apply for admission at the UFH, you create an account to submit all your relevant documents and personal information.
• To create the account, you set the password and username. Please remember those login details or note them down somewhere for future use.
• To check the application status, you need to enter the username and password you confirmed at the time of admission.
• Well, it is not always possible that your application status will be updated; sometimes, it is not updated by the officials, which means there is a delay or you must wait for a while.

This is because UFH is one of the most reputable universities in the Western Cape, to which thousands of students apply yearly. Due to the rush of applications, there can be a delay in your status update procedure.

Shortly, you are not suggested to sweat yourself if your application status has not been updated. Keep calm and wait for the timeframe set by officials; however, in case of an unusual delay, you should contact the admission office of UFH ([email protected])

How Long Will It Take For You To Hear From UFH?

Usually, the UFH takes six to up to eight weeks to update the application status and change the decision made by the officials, but there can be a delay possible.

When you apply to UFH, you expect the institute to get back to you within a few days based on the date and time you applied for admission. But that’s not how it always went because there is the possibility that UFH is busy due to too many applications near the closing date.

This is why I always suggest students apply as early as possible, as it will probably increase their chances of selection at UFH. However, honestly, it is not a confirmation that if you apply early, you’ll definitely get selected at UFH because the selection criteria are mainly based on your score in previous degrees and other eligibility requirements.

Well, you should wait six to eight weeks, during which the UFH will evaluate your application, and the concerned officials will update the application status. If you have not received any notification from the UFH after eight weeks, please contact their admission office for further information ([email protected]).

How To Apply For Admission At UFH?

To apply for admission at UFH, you need to open their official website and tap on the tab called “APPLY NOW.” After clicking the tab, create an account and set a username and password. Then log in to the admission portal and enter all the required details. You must enter your full name, educational background, experience, skills, address, contact details, and guardian details.

When I first applied for admission at UFH, I didn’t place the documents with me at the time of applying, which is why it took me more than an hour to submit the application. That’s why I suggest you see the application form first and write down the required documents and information for your assistance. After collecting all the needed stuff, submit the fields calmly.

You need to complete all the fields marked with red-start (*); otherwise, your application will not be submitted. After clicking on the next button at the bottom of the page, your information or the fields you have completed will be saved in your account. Next time you log in to your UFH account, you don’t need to refill the fields.
