IMPORTANT NOTES
There are several things to consider before applying to the Central University of Technology, CUT:

Closing Dates: Do you know when the CUT Applications close? Simply go here.
Postage/Courier vs. Online: Some universities accept applications online, while others only accept hard copies. Some companies provide both. Consider this when beginning the application process.
Examinees’ Scores: Your Grade 11 results are critical to your application. Some universities will accept your Matric June results, so keep them handy!
Financial Assistance: You may be eligible if your family’s income falls below a certain level. This will be a separate form, and you will need to have your parent’s or guardian’s payslip on hand as proof.
Activity for the Current Year: If you are in Matric, the university will require your school grades and school activity information. They will require travel if you took a gap year.
Supporting Documents: You’ll need your:
- Certified copy of your ID
- Parent’s/guardian’s ID
- Exam results
- Proof of residence
- The most recent payslip NEVER sends the original documents.
Check that all of the following details are correct: Fill out your application form slowly and thoroughly before submitting it online. Fill out a hard copy with a pencil first, then with a blue or black pen.
Payment of the Application Fee: Check the required amount, then EFT or pay it at the bank. Never, ever post it. If payment proof is required, send it to the university.
Signing the Declaration of Independence: Read through the form to ensure that all of your information is true and correct. It must be signed by both you and your parent/guardian.
Acceptance: You will be notified of your acceptance via email or letter. Continue to work hard and make the minimum initial payment by the due date.
NBT Test (with 3 Years Validity): Writing an NBT test is always recommended, though not all universities require it.
