Although the university is one of the oldest in the country, it constantly strives to keep up with the changing need of society and provide its students with a safe and stress-free learning environment.
As the only school named after the late iconic South African hero, Nelson Mandela, the university prides itself on being the hallmark of academic excellence, evidenced in its past and current students.We have provided a breakdown of all the information prospective students need to complete their online application and admission into the university.
Admission into the prestigious university is open to native and international students, and the admission process can be completed online. Before applying to the university, the student should ensure that he/she has the prerequisite for the program he/she is applying for. For proper guidance on the requirements, students are advised to download the online application guideline document.Here is a thorough breakdown of the application processes.
To start the online application process, the prospective student should visit the online application website, where he/she will fill in his/her information in the application form.
To complete the application process in time for the assessment testing and planning by the university, prospective students are advised to submit their application form for admission before the August closing date. Late submissions can still be considered until the September closing date. However, this is based on academic merits.
Submitting a complete application form does not guarantee that the student has been accepted into the university or can go ahead with registration. Admission into the university is determined according to the university’s admission policy. Applicants will be informed of the result of the application through email.
Prospective students should take care to provide an accurate cell number and email address for easy communication of information and also to keep track of their application status online. However, being accepted into the university does not mean automatic acceptance to one of the residences or qualification for a bursary or loan.
Students who were formally registered at other tertiary education institutions must submit an official full academic record and certificate of conduct issued by the various institutes they were previously registered with. The official statement should specify all the courses you had passed or failed and the module you are currently registered for.
The university takes adequate measures to ensure that the learning environment and academic facilities are conducive for all students, even those with disabilities. A student’s disability status is classified.
However, if the university is oblivious of the disability, we will not be in the position to grant a substantial level of support. If the disability is not discernible, the university would require additional information to confirm the disability and increase consideration for the student.

Through the Nelson Mandela University online application portal, students are sent the application form for an accommodation with their acceptance letters.
