All public Universities, Colleges and SETAs have been requested to redirect students who walk into their institutions to the CACH. Late applications only apply to programmes where there is still space available (see list below) and only to national applicants. The Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) have set up a Central Applications Clearing House (CACH) whose purpose is to advise prospective applicants on available study spaces at other tertiary institutions. It is important to note that there is no guarantee for space into residence should an applicant be accepted academically.
