GENERAL INFORMATION1.REGISTRATIONStudents register for a three-year national diploma, after which – pending approval by theHead of Department – they qualify to enrol for a fourth year of study to obtain the BaccalaureusTechnologiae degree in those programmes in which such degrees are offered. An exitopportunity at certificate level is available in certain programmes. Education students registerfor a four-year degree, after which – pending approval by the Head of Department – theyqualify for the BEd Hons degree.2.RESEARCHApplied research is accorded high priority at CUT. Structures have therefore been created tocarry out this important task with excellence. Although an urgent need exists for practicallyoriented contractual and developmental research, there are also ample opportunities for staffand students to conduct research with a view to improve their qualifications.A Graduate School has also been established with the primary aim of overseeing thedevelopment of research at postgraduate level.3.CUT SCALE OF NOTATIONIntroductionIn light of the new National Senior Certificate (NSC) that was introduced in 2008, two setsof criteria are used for admission to CUT. Candidates who obtained the Senior Certificate in2007 or before will still be evaluated and selected for admission on the basis of the old scoringscale, while candidates who obtained the NSC in 2008 and thereafter will be evaluated onthe basis of the new scoring scale. Both these scales are discussed in more detail in theparagraphs that follow.3.1 General admission regulations for candidates who matriculated in 2007 or before3.1.1A candidate for a university of technology degree, diploma or certificate must be inpossession of at least a Grade 12 Certificate or equivalent qualification approved by Senate.3.1.2A candidate for a CUT degree, excluding the Baccalaureus Technologiaedegree and higher qualifications, must be in possession of a Matriculation ExemptionCertificate or Conditional Exemption Certificate.3.1.3Prospective/aspirant students already in possession of a Grade 12 Certificateor equivalent may apply for admission to a degree, diploma or certificate.

The admissioncriteria applicable to each programme of study are as specified in the CUT Calendar.3.1.5Only a person holding a Grade 12 Certificate or equivalent may be admittedas a student for a post-secondary qualification. However, CUT may exempt a person6CUT PROSPECTUS 2017

Applications for such an RPL assessment may be submitted to theAssessment and Graduation Unit.3.1.6If a candidate meets the minimum subject requirements for a degree, diplomaor certificate, but scores fewer than the minimum points on the CUT scoring scale for the JulyGrade 12 examination or a subsequent examination, CUT will consider the following aspects:3.1.6.1There must be a place available for the candidate in the particularlearning programme.3.1.6.2The candidate may be subject to selection in the case of a learning programmewhere this is a requirement (see the chapter pertaining to the relevant faculty in the CUT Calendar).3.1.7 If an applicant fails to qualify for admission to CUT in terms of these regulations,he/she may be subject to the testing of potential in terms of section 4.1.5.3.6 above.3.1.8Candidates must meet the necessary subject requirements for the variouslearning programmes.3.1.7.2The following measuring instruments are used to test potential:3.1.7.2.1 Assessment of prior experience of mature learners.3.1.7.2.2 Results achieved in the General Scholastic Aptitude Test (GSAT),which determines the potential of a candidate, as well as the English Proficiency Test,which measures a candidate’s understanding of and proficiency in English.3.1.7.2.3 Grade 12 results.3.1.7.2.4 Any other measuring instrument as determined by Senate or Council.3.1.7.3The results of the above-mentioned measuring instruments are used inaccordance with the following guidelines:3.1.7.3.1 The results are arranged in sequence of achievement.3.1.7.3.2 The best candidates are accepted in accordance with the needs and vacanciesin the specific learning programme.3.1.7.3.3 A candidate who is not selected may be reconsidered at a subsequent selectionopportunity, where the same procedures as those described above will be followed.3.1.7.3.4 The candidate must deliver proof that he/she is able to express himself/herself in English, both verbally and in writing, so that he/she can benefit fully fromthe learning programme of his/her choice, provided that some departments set higherrequirements with regard to language proficiency.
