Meeting the requirements at an admission score of APS 24+ doesn’t guarantee a seat here, demand for this course tends to outstrip the places available, especially closer to the closing date. Apply early rather than waiting until the deadline.

These insights are estimates generated from South Africa’s National List of Occupations in High Demand (DHET, November 2023 draft), NSFAS’s published funding rules, and this university’s general applicant demand.
