Recommendable University

Walter Sisulu University represents a very respectable and legendary Walter Sisulu who used to fight during the Apartheid times hence that is why I would highly recommend it, and the way that the lectures teach is very simple and understandable for their students.

My university offers good learning

I love that we had a flexible schedule and students get to focus on other things besides school work at all time. The professors elaborate and expand our knowledge by encouraging our research and presentation skills. I disliked that fact that the class gets populated and the noise can be too much
