    Click on this link to open the tool. Login with your student number and myUnisa
    password. Find your module code on the next page and download your examination
    paper.

    3 How do I upload my answer file?


    1 On the landing page for myUnisa, before login, go back to the link where you
    downloaded your examination paper: Login and download my Exam
    Question Paper for Oct/Nov 2020.

    2 Login using your student number and myUnisa password

    3 On the next screen, find the module code for which you want to submit an
    answer file.
    Click on the link to “submit answer file”. This link will only display if the
    examination session is still open for file submissions.

    4 A new screen will open that will guide you through the steps to upload your
    answer file.

    Step 1: Load answer file from your PC to myUnisa and complete the Honesty
    Declaration
     Click on the Browse button next to File Name
     In the Choose File dialog box, select the file you want to upload, and then
    click OK. Be careful. Select the correct document.
     Select the correct programme format from the File Format drop-down list.
    Most modules only allow PDF formatted files to be uploaded.
     Read the Honesty Declaration statement.
     If you agree with the Honesty Declaration statement, type I AGREE in the text
    box. You cannot continue with the upload process if you do not complete the
    requirements of the declaration.
     Click on the Continue button.

    Step 2: Verify the file details for final submission of your answer file
    Use this step to verify that you are uploading the correct answer file to the correct
    course and assessment number.
     Click on the Continue button to submit your answer file. If you do not click
    Continue, no submission action will take place.
     Large files will take longer to upload than smaller files. Please be patient after
    you’ve clicked Continue.
     If the wrong details, e.g. file name, appear on the screen, click Back to restart
    the file upload process.

    Step 3: Assessment submission report


    This is your proof that your answer file was submitted. It is advisable to print
    this page or make a screen capture for record purposes. A copy of this page will
    also be emailed to your myLife email account.

    4 Preparing your answer file


    1. Your answer file must contain ALL the pages you want to submit. Do not
    submit your scanned pages one-by-one. Each time you upload a file it
    REPLACES the previous submission. Only the last file received by Unisa will
    be marked.
    2. Do not password-protect your file. A 0 mark will be assigned.
    3. The first page should clearly state your name, student number and the
    module code. Some modules provide a custom title page. See the
    examination question paper for details.
    4. Number all the pages in your answer file.
    5. Write with a black pen, not a pencil, if hand-writing the submission.
    6. Use proper PDF conversion software to create the final file for upload. Free
    PDF conversion software is available on the Internet.
    7. Add your student number and the module code in the file name. That will
    assist you to select the correct document to upload during submission.
