Welcome to the North-West University! Student life will probably be a very different experience from that which you are used to. You will need to accept new responsibilities and develop much greater self-reliance. This may be challenging. I do though have good news for you. You are now part of a larger NWU community. Whether you reside in a university residence, a flat or other private accommodation, you are just as much a part of the NWU as any other student. North West University Online Application

Please note that, owing to specific capacity constraints, the University reserves the right to select candidates for admission to certain fields of study. This means that prospective students who comply with the minimum requirements will not automatically be admitted to the courses in question. Because of the capacity limitations and the high demand from students for admission to particular fields of study, students will be selected on the basis of their Grade 12 results for admission to these fields.
