To apply for a law-related programme, such as the Bachelor of Arts with Law modules at Sol Plaatje University, applicants must meet specific minimum requirements:
- National Senior Certificate (NSC): Pass with Bachelor’s degree endorsement[1].
- English proficiency: Either Home Language (HL) at NSC Level 4, or First Additional Language (FAL) at NSC Level 5[1].
- Mathematics: Mathematics at NSC Level 3 (40%) or Mathematical Literacy at NSC Level 4 (50%)[1].
- APS (Admission Point Score): A minimum of 30 points[1].
- Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL): Up to 10% of the intake may be admitted via RPL, based on formal/non-formal learning or equivalent experience[1].
- Other pathways: Applicants with a relevant National Certificate Vocational, or SPU’s Higher Certificate in Heritage Studies (with at least a 65% average), will be considered[1].
- Mature age and Level 4 applicants: Those with relevant qualifications at NQF Level 4 may be accepted with approval from the University Registrar[1].
It should be noted that meeting these minimum academic requirements does not guarantee admission, as selection also depends on the number of available places and an applicant’s academic performance above the minimum[5]. The language of instruction at SPU is English, so proficiency is essential[1].
