After you apply to Univen, track your status, respond to any offer by the deadline, and know your options if you are not accepted.
Check your application status
Official Univen admission portal.
Understanding your response
Most universities send a conditional offer on your Grade 11 marks, then a firm offer after the final matric (NSC) results are released in mid-January. Keep checking your Univen status page.
Got an offer?
If you get an offer, accept it in the portal as your firm choice, pay the registration deposit by the deadline to hold your place, and decline the other offers.
Didn't get in?
If Univen does not accept you, you still have good options.
Apply to another university
Some universities are still open or run late windows. Apply to a mix of realistic and reach choices.
Consider a TVET college
Public TVET colleges offer NC(V) and NATED programmes, NSFAS funded, with lower entry requirements.
Start with a Higher Certificate or foundation
These build up to a degree and usually need a lower APS.
Upgrade your matric
Rewrite or improve a subject through the Second Chance programme or an amended Senior Certificate, then reapply.
