Online Registration means not having to wait in queues!
Online Registration Guide
For those students who do not have access to a computer at home you will have to register online at a computer laboratory at the University. You will need to consult the Registration timetable which is available on this website for the exact times, dates and venues.
In order to register online, First Time Entering Students will need to have:
- paid the minimum fee installment due at registration
- submitted the required documentation to Student Admissions
- received notification of a firm offer from Student Admissions based on their final results
- complied with the relevant sections hereunder which will allow them to register.
In order to register online, Returning Students will need to have:
- settled any arrears fees
- paid the minimum fee installment due at registration
- fulfilled the requirements for promotion to the next level of study in the relevant programme
- submitted all outstanding documentation
- complied with the relevant sections hereunder which will allow them to register.
YOU WILL NEED, PRIOR TO REGISTRATION, TO ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE PAID THE MINIMUM DEPOSIT (AT LEAST FIVE WORKING DAYS) AND YOUR FEES ARE UP-TO-DATE IN ORDER TO REGISTER ON THE WEB. If you do not do this your registration will automatically be blocked. Please see the Registration Timetable which is available on this website for the exact date and time for your Programme (You may also register on the web from home via the DUT website and the iEnabler link.)
If you do not register at the specified date and time you will register during the late registration period and will be charged the late registration fee.
Outstanding Documentation Affecting Registration
Even if you are a returning student you need the following documentation to register:
- Any outstanding original documents (eg Senior Certificate not Statement of Results), Identity Document, Study Permit, etc) must be submitted to the Faculty Office the week before you register. Your Statement of Results is temporary, so, if you previously submitted your Statement of Results to us you will now need to collect your Senior Certificate from school and submit it in order to register.
- No student will be re-registered at registration, without the enclosed Indemnity and Surety forms being returned, completely filled out and all the necessary documentation attached. Please ensure that the form is signed and stamped by a Commissioner of Oaths as you will need this form to register.

Non-Residence Students: Annual: R3 690-00 Semester: R2 260-00
Residence Students: Annual: R7 830-00 Semester: R4 530-00 (includes tuition and residence) In the event of the fees costing less than the first installment requested by the University, the lesser amount will be payable on registration.
NSFAS Students are required to pay their family contribution, if any, on registration as their first installment. If the family contribution exceeds the abovementioned amounts, the difference must be paid according to the DUT’s fee installment plan. The installment plan is specified in the Fee Booklet which will be available on the DUT Website. In the event of the fees costing less than the first installment requested by the University, the lesser amount will be payable on registration.
Payment of Fees: To avoid the complications, payment must be made at least five working days before registration through the bank using the M65 Deposit Slip (available on the DUT Website) and using your student number as reference. Failure to ensure that all relevant payments have been made will result in your registration being blocked. Proof of payment must be brought to Web Registration.
