How To Calculate Your APS At UP 2024-2025

This page serves as a guide on how to calculate your APS score.

The Admission Point Score (APS) is crucial for University of Pretoria applicants. The linked website provides instructions on determining the University of Pretoria Admission Point Score (APS).

To calculate your APS at UP:

Understand what APS means – Admission Point Score. South African universities utilize APS points to assess applicants’ eligibility for specific programs.
Follow UP’s single APS calculation method by adding the percentages of your six best subjects (excluding Life Orientation).

Applicants need a minimum APS or must fall within the testing range to be considered for a particular program. Points are earned for each matric subject based on the exam results, and the total Admission Point Score (APS) is the sum of these course points.

A quick reminder:

Achieving the minimum APS may not guarantee admission to your desired program; strive for the best grades.
Be aware that some courses may have additional requirements (e.g., portfolio, audition, interview). Confirm these expectations with the respective faculty.

The Admission Point Score (APS) is primarily used by universities for their internal purposes. It helps streamline the application process by allowing students to determine the courses for which they may be eligible based on APS score requirements.
