Application information

Entry requirements

Business Management (BCom Honours): applicants must have passed at least six undergraduate Business Management modules (or equivalents from other institutions), including Basic Financial Management (EFMA2614) and Market Research (EMAR3714), with an average of at least 60% and not less than 55% in each module; 64 credits at NQF level 5 and/or 6 and 32 credits at NQF level 7. An undergraduate degree is required. A 60% average does not guarantee acceptance because priority goes to the highest marks given limited supervision capacity. Selection takes place and applications must be submitted online before 30 September of the year before registration.

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.

Postgraduate diploma applications open on 1 April; local applicants close 30 September and international applicants close 31 August (Economic and Management Sciences); Health Sciences postgraduate diplomas close 30 September for both local and international applicants.
