<\/p>\n
Your application will only be considered for admission to the University if you qualify for Bachelor\u2019s degree study AND you satisfy the faculty requirements. To qualify for with a Bachelor\u2019s pass status, learners are required to take seven subjects, four of which are compulsory (two languages, Life Orientation and either Mathematics or Mathematical Literacy) and three of the learner\u2019s own choice from the subjects on offer at the school.<\/p>\n
To qualify for degree studies at Rhodes University, learners must pass:<\/p>\n
English language at an achievement rating of 4 (50 \u2013 59%) or above.<\/p>\n
At least four of the seven subjects must be from the list of recommended subject list set out below and sutdents must have obtained an achievement rating of 4 (50 \u2013 59%) or above.<\/p>\n
Meet Faculty requirements:\u00a0 subject requirements and percentage required.<\/p>\n
PLEASE NOTE:\u00a0 Obtaining the minimum requirements does not guarantee acceptance!<\/p>\n
Recommended subject list:<\/p>\n
Accounting, Agricultural Science, Business Studies, Consumer Studies, Dramatic Arts, Engineering Graphics & Design, Economics, Geography, History, Information Technology, Languages, Life Sciences, Mathematics \/ Mathematical Literacy, Music, Physical Science, Religion Studies, Visual Arts.<\/p>\n
The minimum entry requirements for admission to Rhodes University in 2020 are set out in the following table below. Note (a) the point levels that are required (b) the differences in the achievement levels that are needed for Mathematical Literacy, (c) the need for Life and\/or Physical Sciences for degrees in Science or Pharmacy.<\/p>\n
HOW TO CALCULATE YOUR ADMISSION POINT SCORE (APS)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
The percentages achieved in National Senior Certificate examinations (preliminary and final examinations) will be allocated an admissions score using the percentage obtained for each subject. The sum of six subject scores, excluding Life Orientation but including English and any other required subject(s) for the relevant programme is considered when deciding on admission. Results below 40% for any subject do not attract a score. Mathematics Paper 3 does not contribute to the APS score but the results will be captured for the Dean to note when making an admission decision.<\/p>\n

DEANS DECISIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n
If you do not meet the APS score of 45\u00a0points for automatic acceptance, you may still be considered for a place at the Dean\u2019s discretion. Such places are usually offered with some extra conditions. Some places are usually offered to students with an APS score of 38 \u2013 44\u00a0with some extra conditions (see extended studies below).\u00a0\u00a0It is therefore very important to give full information when completing the application form as this is the information that the Dean will use for making a decision.<\/p>\n
Extended Studies Programme
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n
As an alternative route to university studies at Rhodes, a limited number of students who show potential to succeed are exposed to a carefully designed and supportive learning environment which enhances their ability to succeed. This option is for students coming from disadvantaged backgrounds on condition that they take their degree over an extra year at University.\u00a0 It is therefore, essential full information is provided when completing the application form as this forms part of the decision-making process by the Dean.<\/p>\n
NATIONAL BENCHMARK TESTS (NBT\u2019S)<\/strong><\/p>\n
It is recommended that all first-time university-entering South African applicants write the NBT\u2019s. If the applicant does not meet the automatic entry requirements the NBT results will form part of the Dean\u2019s decision-making on applications. These test results can also be used if a candidate does not meet the entrance requirements in their final examinations.<\/p>\n
There are two tests that are written throughout the year at various centres:<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0The Academic and Quantitative literacy test (AQL<\/strong>) consists of two components, namely academic literacy and quantitative literacy. All applicants should write the AQL test.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 The\u00a0Mathematics test (MAT<\/strong>), this test is for applicants who wish to enter the following faculties:\u00a0 Commerce, Pharmacy and Science.<\/p>\n
For further information\u00a0<\/strong>about the NBT, dates and venues, please visit: www.nbt.ac.za or call<\/p>\n
021 650 3523.<\/p>\n
International requirements<\/strong><\/p>\n
