Frequently Asked Questions (2027 Intake)
Which universities are still open for 2027 applications?
Open windows change often. Use this page as a tracker, then verify directly on each institution website before submitting.
Do all universities close on the same date?
No. Dates vary by institution and sometimes by faculty or qualification. Always verify official notices.
What documents do I need for 2027 applications?
Usually a certified ID copy, latest results, and programme-specific supporting documents. Requirements differ by institution.
Can I apply if I am under 18?
Yes, but some institutions may request guardian/parent consent documents. Prepare these early.
How does APS affect my application?
APS requirements differ by programme. Calculate your APS early and keep alternative programme options ready.
Is NSFAS the same as a bursary?
No. NSFAS is a national funding scheme with its own eligibility rules; bursaries are offered by separate providers with different terms.
Can I still apply after official deadlines?
Some institutions may open late or rolling windows for specific programmes, but this is not guaranteed. Verify directly with the institution.
How often should I check for deadline changes?
At least weekly during the 2027 intake cycle, and more frequently near closing periods.
