UJ Online Application 2025/2026 Undergraduate

The University of Johannesburg, a leading institution with a rich history in South African higher education, encourages potential students interested in commencing their undergraduate studies in 2025 to prepare their application materials. The online application portal will open for new submissions on April 1st, 2024, offering access to a diverse range of undergraduate programmes for the 2025 academic year.

The University of Johannesburg (UJ) has blossomed in recent years, transforming into a vibrant tapestry of cultures, backgrounds, and intellectual pursuits. With over 50,000 students, of whom more than 3,000 hail from over 80 different nations, it’s no surprise that UJ stands as one of the largest contact universities among South Africa’s 26 public institutions.

UJ’s academic offerings are as diverse as its student body. Seven faculties and a college house a kaleidoscope of disciplines, from the established fields of education, law, and the humanities to the more creative realms of art, design, and architecture. Health Sciences, Science, Engineering, and the Built Environment find their home here as well, with the College of Business and Economics boasting the prestigious Johannesburg Business School.

Four distinct campuses—Auckland Park Bunting Road, Auckland Park Kingsway, Doornfontein, and Soweto—add to the university’s dynamic character. Each campus pulsates with its own unique energy, creating a microcosm of the bustling city of Johannesburg itself.

In essence, UJ is more than just a university; it’s a melting pot of ideas, aspirations, and cultures. It’s a place where students from all walks of life come together to learn, grow, and shape the future, not just of South Africa but of the world.
