For all MMed programmes you must have held an MBChB (or an equivalent qualification considered sufficient by the University) for at least three years before applying and be registered with the HPCSA as a medical practitioner in the category independent practice. To register as an MMed student you must occupy a registrar post with the Western Cape Provincial Department of Health and Wellness or the National Health Laboratory Service (exceptions: occasional students attempting primary subjects before obtaining a registrar post, and those who have completed training time and only need to complete the research assignment). Proof of professional registration is required as a supporting document. Applicants to Anaesthesiology, Neurosurgery, Emergency Medicine, Otorhinolaryngology, Orthopaedics and Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery must also have completed suitable courses such as ATLS, ACLS, PALS and APLS.
Requirements published at program group level.

Stellenbosch Business School applicants pay R1050 for the MBA and R850 for other SBS programmes. Some applicants are exempt; application fees are non-refundable.
