Entry requirements

The entry requirement for MEd is the BEd (Hons) degree or an equivalent (on NQF level 8), and for the DEd it is an MEd or equivalent (on NQF level 9). The entry mark for the previous qualification for entry into either the MEd or DEd is 60%. We therefore need copies of all your previous qualifications’ study records from that university, with the final pass mark (%) indicated on the records, as well as the certificates of your qualifications.

Tuition is charged per module, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Course-based master's applications for 2027 close on 30 September 2026; full-research master's applications close on 15 March 2027, for national and international applicants.

The application fee is R110 (non-refundable); the late application fee is R160. A deposit of R1,750 is payable on acceptance and a registration fee of R785 applies.
