Late applications for all Universities and TVET Colleges

CACH: 2024 Late applications for all Universities and TVET Colleges

Central Application Clearing House (CACH) applications are open from the 26th of January 2024 to 31 March 2024. Students who matriculated from the year 2000 onwards and have not received firm offers from tertiary institutions are eligible to apply.

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.

The (CACH) service for 2024 is open from 26 January 2024 until 31 March 2024.

Learners who have completed Grade 12 from 2000 onwards will be eligible to sign-up.

Sign-ups to CACH must be online on this website.

Sign-ups are open from 26 January 2024 until 31 March 2024.

When completing a sign-up, you will need the following:

  1. A copy of your NSC/SC Certificate or Statement of Results.
    • You are required to enter your ID/Passport Number or Examination Number, Name, Surname and Date of Birth exactly as it appears on your NSC statement of results or your NSC/SC certificate so we can retrieve your final Grade 12 results directly from the Department of Education (DBE).
  2. Cellphone Number
  3. Email Address
    • For communications at different stages in the sign up process e.g. on receipt of your sign up and to inform you of any offers you may receive.
    • If you do not have a valid email address, you will be given an option to create a gmail address for communications

USING CACH

The Central Applications Clearing House (CACH) service aims to match applicants’ exam results and study preferences with places that need to be filled, but cannot guarantee that you will be offered a place. Sall take your Grade 12 results directly from the Department of Basic Education. If you want to study at a specific institution only, you should not apply through CACH but contact that institution directly. If you have already applied to a University and or TVET College and your application was not successful the CACH service provides an alternative mechanism to access opportunities at other institutions. The CACH service does guarantee that applicant data will be actively distributed and made available to all possible institutions in the PSET system.

The CACH Service provides referral to the following:

  • National Student Financial Aid Scheme on 080 006 7327 or www.nsfas.org.za
  • Career Centre on 086 999 0123 or www.careerhelp.org.za
