  3. Admission Requirements All qualifications in both CSET & CAES require either English or Afrikaans as part of the admission requirement.

  4. Exemption from Language requirement • Completed qualification (formal or non formal), with minimum duration of 1 year at SA public university or accredited SA private higher education institution. • Incomplete qualification at SA public university or accredited SA private higher education institution, with at least 60 credits passed.

  8. Science Foundation Provision (SFP) • SFP provides additional learning support in the qualifications and modules which are marked as SFP. • This support is provided in the form of tutorials within each module, and in the form of mentorship and assistance in English language, mathematics, information and computer literacies.

  9. Foundation provision does not change the curriculum in the qualification; all students registered for a qualification go through the same curriculum, and obtain the same qualification, the difference being the additional learning support that is provided at the 1st level modules. • The purpose of Science Foundation Provision is to improve the success rate in science programmes and hence increase the throughput of our science students. • SFP identified students are restricted to 36 credits per semester.

  11. Honours & BTECH’s • DO NOT send any registrations directly to an Individual. • Check F851 to see if application has been verified. • If yes, student may register at Self-Help. • If no information is populated on F851, complete the application form for returning students and send to the Applications office. • Registrations that cannot be processed by your office, must be sent to RMD for scanning and routing to the relevant work lists.
