Applicants must meet the criteria set by the relevant faculty with regard to their chosen academic subjects.

Special admission procedures for programmes include assessment for NBT (National Benchmark Test), guidance, evaluation and placement purposes, interviews and submission of portfolios of work.

How to determine your Admission Point Score (APS):

A new Admission Point Score (APS) explained below has been developed for the National Senior Certificate (NSC) and the Independent Examinations Board (IEB) based on the Achievement Rating of each subject. The APS is basically the sum of the achievement ratings of the seven school subjects, keeping in mind that the performance rating achieved for Life Orientation must be divided by 2.
