Established in 1960 and based north of the uThukela River in KwaZulu-Natal, the University of Zululand is a comprehensive public institution that combines academic and vocationally-oriented programmes across two campuses. Its main campus at KwaDlangezwa hosts the bulk of its degree programmes across four faculties — Commerce, Administration and Law; Science and Agriculture; Arts; and Education — while its newer Richards Bay campus, opened in 2009, focuses on diploma and higher-certificate qualifications developed in partnership with local industry and the maritime sector. UNIZULU has built a reputation for producing graduates who go on to hold leadership roles in government, education, science and commerce, and positions itself as a research-active institution with strong ties to the surrounding communities it serves.

Entry
Admission Requirements at UNIZULU
Two things decide an offer: your APS, and the specific subjects a programme requires at a minimum level. A high APS does not help if a compulsory subject is missing, so check both on the course page before you apply.
Across the 42 courses listed here, APS requirements run from 22 up to 32. Use the APS tool above to filter the list to what you qualify for right now.
