The South Gauteng High Court dismissed a Wits student’s urgent application to overturn her 2026 academic exclusion.

Mwaba completed 264 out of 432 required credits and did not pass essential second-year courses for her degree.

University committees denied her readmission and appeal requests, citing insufficient academic progress.

The court respected university autonomy and found no evidence of unlawful or unfair procedures in the exclusion decision.

There was no evidence that the respondents (Wits) acted irrationally or failed to follow procedures that afforded the applicant an opportunity to appeal.
— Judge Shanaaz Mia, delivering the judgment in the South Gauteng High Court, Johannesburg
