Undertaking a research degree is a demanding commitment that may span a long period during which your life circumstances may change unexpectedly. The birth of a baby, marriage, divorce, loss of income, and a change of conditions of employment are examples of changes that could affect your studies.
If you encounter such changes, be aware that you have the option to change your load or mode of study or defer your studies. Talk to your research supervisor who may be able to advise you on the best course of action. Also, counselling and advice are available to assist you.
