    About Universities of Technology

    Universities of Technology bridging & enabling programmes

    Career PlanetBy Career PlanetUpdated:No Comments2 Mins Read

    Various Universities and Universities of Technology offer courses or programmes to assist students who do not meet their requirements fully. This is usually determined via a Benchmark test.
    These options have various names, depending on the university or the faculty: Extended, Access, Engage, Augmented, Foundation programmes etc.

    NOTE: Does not apply when you do NOT have required subjects like Maths or Science. You would have to add them to your NSC. If your marks do not meet requirements you need to rewrite (up to 2 subjects). 

    EXTENDED

    This option is the most common where usually an extra year is added to a degree – eg a 3 year degree takes 4 years.  You will be required to write a benchmarking test.
