GIBS: A Business School Second to None!
I’ve just started the MBA and, honestly, the first few months have been incredible. The cohort is so diverse and experienced, it’s the kind of environment where you leave feeling energised/inspired. The lecturers have been excellent too, John Ford, Monaj and the rest of the faculty bring proper real-world insight, not just “theory". The admin support has also been standout, communication has been clear, quick, and genuinely helpful. Veronica and her management team are also so friendly, professional, and supportive... it really adds to the experience. The campus also feels world class (Special shoutout to the goooood aircon). The catering is also ridiculous (in the best way). Big thank you to Prof. Morris and the team, it’s been a great start and I’m really glad I chose GIBS!

Money making scheme
GIBS operates like a money-making scheme, with poor lecture delivery. When students fail by just 2%, they are not only failed but also required to pay R17,000 for readmission, despite the subpar teaching. I deeply regret studying at GIBS, as they seem more focused on making money than supporting students who pay such high fees

Gibs destroys young people
Gibs, is the worse employer in South Africa, and destroys lives of young black South African employed as interns, and there is a lady who’s a programme director who is untouchable and destroys lives of young lives and Department of Education and University of Pretoria seems to be Unable to deal with the vagrant attitude of the select group which destroys lives of young black.

It's just a waste of stupid time and takes away your family and friends just for stupid assignments. It ruins kids life if you have one. You'll end up neglecting them and they'll feel all alone. -1/10 worst ever do NOT reccomend

GIBS *****ry!
I have a spine chilling experience from this institution. I had to deregister because as much as they claim to be inclusive, they actually take pride in being bullies and *****s. For the amount of money they charge for PDBA, I had to opt to deregister because I was being bul**** to stay in a syndicate where I was clearly going to fail. I didn't even choose the syndicate by the way and they refused point blank for me to change so I requested to deregister. I was shocked by the *****ry and violation of my right as a human being when I received the confirmation of cancellation and the reason for cancellation was a lie and cited something that I only disclosed to the programme manager to give context but did not give consent to be shared further. I am disturbed by the lack of integrity in processing matters and the lie and misrepresentation of the reason for my cancellation of the course. I am aware of my social standing in this country and having a disability pushes me further down the food chain of people whose cases should be handled with the confidentiality and integrity they deserve. Still, shame on you GIBS, I cannot believe I still have to pay 25% of the tuition fee after only attending 1 course and being mistreated like this!! For an institution that claims to be inclusive, I and knew it was all just a scorecard point for them because saying you provide concessions without even understand limitations and implications of conditions that you claim to accommodate is laughable. Using my health status as the reason for cancellation is *********, even for an institution that only cares for money like yours.

CERTIFICATE
I studied with GIBS IN 2012 and am now struggling to obtain my certificate. I sent several emails and the response is not forthcoming. On one email I received a partial response. I am now struggling to reach anyone there that can assist.

Non-responsiveness to emails & queries from online supoort team, seeams they have no clue on the content of the study material or lack of interest to the programme of candidates.
Good Day Please assist with the below ingored queries by the student co-ordinator & support staff. • There wasn’t sufficient support provided to me as a student despite numerous queries. • I called many times and the was simply no one to take my calls. • I sent email and follow-up emails and they were responded too at time with minimum explanations at times ignored. • I resorted to contact the Johannesburg office to raise the issue this was forward to the relevant parties to contact me and to date no one has returned my calls • Please let me know if you can assist in this regard to direct me to someone who will be able to assist.

Unacceptable treatment from GIBS and slow in rectifying their errors
I was enrolled for the MPhil IB programme scheduled to start in May 2021. After paying my deposit in November 2020 I received no communication from them regarding the registration process, lecture time tabetable and all other information I would need to prepare for the start of my studies. However, about two weeks before classes were meant to start I had received no information whatsoever and after sending numerous emails and making phone calls I had received no assistance. As a result of this, classes started without me. Only after the programme had started did I receive a call from one of their staff asking why I was not attending classes. I then explained that this was because I had not been provided with the necessary info to attend. The explanation provided to me then was that due to a 'system error' the information had not been sent to me. However, this person that called me to follow up on why I hadn't attended is one of the people I contacted to get assistance before classes had started and they didn't bother to respond. Anyway, as the classes had already started and it was too late for me to make arrangements with my employer, I was offered the option to defer my attendance to May 2022, which I was fine with, given the circumstances. Fast forward to May 2022 the same issues happen- early May and once again I do not have information on registration/ class schedule. I send an email which goes unanswered. I send a follow up email 10 days later and only then does someone respond. By then, registration is done and classes have started. I am provided with the same reason for not receiving the information- admin errors. Again it is too late for me to make arrangements with my employer to participate. They offer me the option of deferring my registration by yet another year, or switching to another degree/short course starting later this year which i am not interested in. At this point I do not want any more involvement with this institute and just want a refund of my money and nobody is able to give me a straight answer regarding this. I am just told that they are working on it but receive no tangible feedback. This has been a very frustrating experience. Never did I expect to have such an unpleasant experience from such a prestigious Institution. Please resolve this issue ASAP. You have inconvenienced me enough!!!!
