MEDUNSA OWED MILLIONS

THE Medical University of Southern Africa (Medunsa) has given students with financial problems 10 more days in which to make arrangements to pay their fees. Students owe the university over R56,1 million in fees. A debt of R26,1 million was incurred during the 1998 academic year alone. Medunsa spokesman, Richard Maseko, said on Tuesday that students have until Friday, February 26, to raise payment problems with the institution’s financial aid bureau or finance department.
