Admission requirements

Please note that the admission requirements are subject to change pending selection and possible faculty-specific requirements.

Please be informed that the university reserves the right to choose candidates for admission to certain programs of study owing to capacity constraints. This means that prospective students will not be automatically admitted to the appropriate courses, even if they match the minimum requirements. Students will be admitted to specific fields of study depending on their Grade 12 marks due to capacity limits and high student demand.
