A. GENERAL INFORMATION
1. For admission to the four-year B of Nursing degree programme an applicant shall
hold the National Senior Certificate (NSC), endorsed by Umalusi, or an equivalent
qualification with an aggregate of at least 60% (level 5) (excluding Life Orientation)
and at least 40% (level 3) for Mathematics, OR at least 70% (level 6) for Mathematical
Literacy, and at least 50% (level 4) for Life Sciences.
3. Since approximately 50% of the selected applicants do not accept the selection offer,
more applicants are selected initially and eventually reach the goal of at most 50
students in total.
4. During the selection process, an effort is made to ensure that the gender profile of
the group of selected applicants is an accurate reflection of the gender profile of
applicants who satisfy the minimum admission requirements.
5. The annual revision of the number of students admitted to the programme depends
on:
5.1 Training capacity in terms of human resources, infrastructure and the clinical
training platform
5.2 Regional and national needs
5.3 Enrolment planning of the University
5.4 Number of students accredited per annum as per regulatory body.
6. Only applicants who have indicated B of Nursing as one of the choices on their
application, before the relevant application closing date, will be considered for
selection into the programme.

7. Preference will be given to South African citizens, applicants with proof of permanent
residency status or those with proof of refugee status when applicants are considered
for selection.
8. Candidates cannot defer their selection from one year to another. If an applicant is
successful, but does not take up their selection offer, such an applicant will normally
have to apply anew to be considered for selection in future.
B1. Current learners (grade 12) and applicants who have completed school (p. 2 – 5);
B2. Registered students (p. 5 – 7);
B3. Applicants with tertiary qualifications and/or work experience (p. 7).
1.1 Selection of this group takes place at the first selection opportunity during the second
semester of the preceding year.
1.2 Applicants who matriculated longer than three years ago, cannot be considered
within this category and it is recommended that they prepare themselves to be
considered within category B2 or B3. Please note that selection within these
categories cannot be guaranteed.
1.2.2 Applicants registered for a formal higher education programme during the
application year must be considered in category B2 “registered university
students”; and
1.3 Applicants within this category are selected based on academic merit (Academic
performance at school)
1.3.1 In the case of Grade 12 learners, the average academic percentage obtained in
the final Grade 11 year-end assessment is used (excluding Life Orientation).
1.3.2 In the case of applicants who have completed school, the average academic
percentage obtained in the National Senior Certificate (NSC) Examination or
equivalent is used (excluding Life Orientation).
1.4 All applicants are then ranked according to their academic merit, which forms the
2
basis for the selection of these students.
1.5 The National Benchmark Test (NBT) will only be used to determine the admission of
applicants from the School of Tomorrow. The average percentage obtained in the
tests will be used.
1.6.2. Then all Black African, Coloured, Indian and Asian applicants are selected in
priority sequence according to the academic merit ranking until 100 applicants
have been selected
1.6.3. Up to 15 applicants (approximately 15% of the class) are selected based on the
Selection Factor by applicants with a socioeconomic status (SES)-factor of 6 or
higher.
1.6.4. Should two or more applicants with the same Selection Factor vie for one
position, the applicant/s with a higher SES factor will be prioritized for selection.
1.6.5. If it is still not possible to distinguish between two or more applicants after
considering the SES factor, such applicants may be requested to submit a
motivational letter and will be interviewed by a selection panel to determine
selection or not.
1.6.6. Applicants who are conditionally selected for more than one programme must
formally confirm their acceptance of one offer.
1.6.6.1. The selection offers, for applicants who do not accept their conditional

reason) can only be reissued if there are vacancies in the programme.
1.6.7. Applicants who have applied with their final National Senior Certificate marks
(or equivalent) and who have received a conditional offer of selection, will
receive a final selection offer to the programme in the application year. Such
applicants will be required to accept the final selection offer.
1.6.7.1. The selection offers, of applicants who do not accept their final
selection offer (by the determined date communicated in the final
offer letter), will expire.
1.6.7.2. Final offers that have been declined or expired (for whatever reason)
can only be reissued if there are vacancies in the programme.

SUNStudent application portal to submit a request to place themselves on the
Bachelor of Nursing waiting list.
1.6.8.1. Applicants may only opt-in to the waiting list if they have applied to
the Bachelor of Nursing programme before 31 July and if they meet
the minimum admission requirements of the programme and any
other requirement/s outlined in the Selection Guidelines.
1.6.8.2. Waitlisted applicants will be ranked according to the academic merit
ranking.
1.6.8.3. Applicants who do not request to place themselves on the waiting list
(by the determined date communicated in the waiting list notification),
will be marked as unsuccessful.
1.6.8.4. Applicants that have failed to respond to the waiting list notification,
can submit requests to place themselves on the waiting list after the
waiting list closing date. Such applicants will be placed on the waiting
list based on the academic merit ranking and only if there are
vacancies in the programme. These applicants must contact the
Undergraduate Selection and Admissions office on
tygselections@sun.ac.za before the end of November of the
application year.
1.6.9. Cancellations are replaced from the waiting list in a further conditional selection
round/s in the application year, based on Academic merit ranking while
maintaining the demographic, SES and gender profile of the conditionally
selected first-year intake, if places are available in the programme.
1.6.10. Final offers are made to conditionally selected applicants, in January of the
following year or as soon as the final National Senior Certificate marks (or
equivalent) become available and provided that they meet the minimum
admission requirements of the programme with their final National Senior
Certificate marks and any other requirement/s outlined in the Selection
Guidelines.
1.6.10.1. The selection offers of applicants who no longer meet the minimum
admission requirements and any other requirements as outlined in
these guidelines, will be marked as unsuccessful.
1.6.10.2. The selection offers of applicants who do not accept their final
selection offer (by the determined date communicated in the final
offer letter), will expire.
1.6.10.3. Final offers that have been declined or expired (for whatever reason)
can only be reissued if there are vacancies in the programme.
1.6.11. In January of the following year or as soon as the final National Senior

2.7 Registered SU students’ applications close on 31 July via the SUNStudent application
system and are considered in early December, after the final results have become
available.
2.7.1 Students, who do not utilise the A2 assessment opportunity or the first
5
submission opportunity for theses or research assignments cannot be
considered for selection as their final results will not be available to the
selection panel in time for the selection meeting in December.
2.8 A student wanting a transfer from a Nursing programme at another university to the
B of Nursing at this University will be considered by the Selection Panel. Such transfers
will only be granted in highly exceptional cases as outlined in the faculty’s transfer
guidelines available here.
2.10 The following additional guidelines also apply to this category of applicants:
2.10.1 Applications from current students who will complete their degree in the
relevant year, or other students who pass all their subjects over the specific
number of years, will be considered.
2.10.2 In the case of students who complete the degree in the year concerned,
preference will be given to students who complete the degree in the
prescribed time, and with a weighted average of at least 60% for the duration
of the programme. In the case of other students, preference will be given to
students who pass all their subjects with a weighted average of at least 60%
over the specific number of years.
2.11 Undergraduate students are ranked in order of priority based on the preceding
considerations, and this serves as point of departure for the selection process. Special
consideration may be given to Black African, Coloured, Indian and Asian students who
meet the minimum requirements described in 2.10.2.
2.12 Postgraduate applicants within this category are ranked in order of priority based on
the preceding considerations in 2.10.3, after which a shortlist of meritorious applicants
is compiled. A final selection is made after applicants on the shortlist have been further
assessed by means of a personal interview. Invitation to an interview is by no means
a guarantee that an applicant will be selected.
2.13 In the case of registered undergraduate students, when all the available places are
filled, qualifying applicants are placed on a waiting list according to academic merit.
Cancellations are filled from the waiting list according to merit if places are available
in the programme.
2.14 Students who are selected for B of Nursing I could be exempted from corresponding
modules which they have passed, according to the faculty’s Recognition of Prior
Learning (RPL) and Credit Accumulation and Transfer (CAT) Guidelines, but all the
6
modules from which they are not exempted must be passed for them to be promoted
to Nursing II the following year.
3.1. Approximately 15% of the places are filled from this group AND the category of
registered university students (see B.2 above).

qualification (NQF level 7 and above) in the normal time with a weighted average of
60% or more and who have included a motivational letter with the application.
3.5. These applicants are selected according to academic merit, the demographic profile
of the first-year intake and a number of other considerations (see 3.4 above). A
shortlist of meritorious applicants is then compiled after the consideration of all
applications within this category.
3.6. A final selection of applicants on the shortlist will be made after a personal interview.
2. Applicants with official refugee status must be considered according to law. Only SA
citizens qualify for institutional bursaries and loans, as well as NSFAS funding.

A. ALGEMENE INLIGTING
1. Vir toelating tot die vierjarige B in Verpleegkunde-graadprogram moet ʼn aansoeker
in besit wees van die Nasionale Senior Sertifikaat (NSS), soos gesertifiseer deur
Umalusi, of ʼn gelykwaardige kwalifikasie, met ʼn gemiddeld van 60% (vlak 5)
(Lewensoriëntering uitgesluit) en in Wiskunde minstens 40% (vlak 3), of ten minste 70%
(vlak 6) vir Wiskundige Geletterdheid sowel as Lewenswetenskappe 50% (vlak 4).
2. Aansoekers wat 'n internasionale kurrikulum voltooi, kan onderhewig wees aan
addisionele vereistes. Gedetailleerde inligting oor Matrikulasievrystelling is op die
www.sun.ac.za/international webwerf beskikbaar.
Op grond van die hoogstaande meriete van die meeste aansoekers, is voldoening aan
die minimum toelatingsvereistes geensins ’n waarborg van suksesvolle keuring nie.
3. Aangesien ongeveer 25-30% van die gekeurde aansoekers nie die keuringsaanbod
aanvaar nie, word daar aanvanklik meer aansoekers gekeur ten einde uiteindelik die
mikpunt van 50 studente in totaal te bereik.
4. Gedurende die keuringsproses word dit daarna gestreef dat die geslagsprofiel van
die groep gekeurde kandidate ’n weerspieëling sal wees van die geslagsprofiel van
aansoekers wat aan die minimum toelatingsvereistes voldoen.
5. Die jaarlikse hersiening van die getal studente toegelaat tot die program is op grond
van:
5.1 Opleidingskapasiteit t.o.v. menslike hulpbronne, infrastruktuur en die
kliniese opleidingsplatform
5.2 Streeks- en landsbehoeftes
5.3 Inskrywingsbeplanning van die Universiteit
5.4 Aantal studente wat per jaar geakkrediteer is volgens die regulerende liggaam.
11
7. Voorkeur sal aan Suid-Afrikaanse burgers, aansoekers met bewys van permanente
verblyfstatus of aansoekers met bewys van vlugtelingstatus gegee word wanneer
aansoekers vir keuring oorweeg word.
8. Kandidate kan nie hul keuring uitstel van een jaar na ʼn volgende nie. Indien ʼn
aansoeker dus suksesvol is en nie hulle keuring aanvaar nie, moet sodanige aansoeker
normaalweg weer van vooraf aansoek doen om oorweeg te word vir keuring in die
toekoms.
1.1 Keuring van hierdie groep vind plaas tydens die eerste keuringsgeleentheid
gedurende die tweede semester van die voorafgaande jaar.
1.2 Aansoekers wat langer as drie jaar gelede gematrikuleer het, kan nie binne hierdie
kategorie oorweeg word nie en word aangeraai om eers hulself voor te berei vir
oorweging in kategorie B2 of B3. Let egter daarop dat keuring in hierdie kategorie
steeds nie gewaarborg kan word nie.
1.3 Aansoekers in hierdie kategorie word soos volg op grond van akademiese meriete
oorweeg (akademiese prestasie op skool)
1.3.1 In die geval van huidige leerders (Graad 12) word die gemiddelde akademiese
persentasie behaal in die finale Graad 11-jaareindassessering behaal is,
gebruik (Lewensoriëntering uitgesluit).
1.3.2 In die geval van aansoekers wat die skool voltooi het, word die gemiddelde
akademiese persentasie behaal in die Nasionale Senior Sertifikaat (NSS)-
eksamen of ekwivalent gebruik (uitgesluit lewensoriëntering).
12
1.4 Alle aansoekers word dan op grond van hul akademiese meriete op ‘n merietelys
geranglys, wat die basis vorm vir die keuring van hierdie studente.
1.5 Die Nasionale Normtoets (NNT) word slegs gebruik om die toelating van aansoekers
van die School of Tomorrow te bepaal. Die gemiddelde persentasie wat in die toetse
behaal word, word gebruik.
1.6.1 Die top 19 aansoekers word in volgorde volgens die akademiese meriete
gekeur, met voorkeur aan aansoekers met SA burgerskap of permanente
verblyfstatus of vlugtelingstatus, ongeag ras of enige ander oorwegings.
1.6.2 Daarna word swart Afrikaan-, bruin, Indiër- en Asiatiese aansoekers uit al die
provinsies gekeur in prioriteitsvolgorde volgens die SES Faktor mits hulle aan
die minimum toelatingsvereiste voldoen totdat 100 aansoekers gekeur is
plekke gevul is.
1.6.3 15 Aansoekers (ongeveer 15% van die gekeurde aansoekers) met 'n sosio-
ekonomiese status (SES) -faktor van 6 of hoër word gekeur op grond van die
Keuringsfaktor.
1.6.4 Sou twee of meer aansoekers met dieselfde akademiese meriete vir een plek
meeding, sal die aansoeker/s met 'n hoër SES-faktor voorkeur geniet vir
keuring.
1.6.5 As dit na die oorweging van die SES-faktor nog nie moontlik is om tussen twee
of meer aansoekers te onderskei nie, kan sodanige aansoekers 'n
motiveringsbrief indien en sal hulle na onderhoudvoering deur 'n
keuringspaneel gekeur word of nie.
1.6.6 Aansoekers wat vir meer as een program voorwaardelik gekeur word, moet
hul aanvaarding van een aanbod formeel bevestig.
1.6.6.1 Die keuringsaanbiedinge vir aansoekers wat nie hul voorwaardelike
keuringsaanbod aanvaar nie (teen die vasgestelde datum wat in die
voorwaardelike aanbodbrief gekommunikeer word), sal verval.
1.6.6.2 Voorwaardelike aanbiedinge wat afgekeur of verval het (om watter
rede ook al) kan slegs heruitgereik word indien daar plekke in die
program beskikbaar is.

punte (of ekwivalent) en wat 'n voorwaardelike keuringsaanbod ontvang het, sal
'n finale keuringsaanbod vir die program in die aansoekjaar ontvang. Daar sal
van sulke aansoekers verwag word om die finale keuringsaanbod te aanvaar.
1.6.7.1 Die keuringsaanbiedinge van aansoekers wat nie hul finale
keuringsaanbod aanvaar nie (teen die vasgestelde datum wat in die
finale aanbodbrief gekommunikeer word), sal verval.
1.6.7.2 Finale aanbiedinge wat afgekeur of verval het (om watter rede ook al)
13
kan slegs heruitgereik word indien daar plekke in die program
beskikbaar is.
1.6.8 Wanneer al die beskikbare plekke gevul is, sal kategorie B1-aansoekers wat nie
'n aanbod van toelating ontvang het nie en wat voldoen aan die minimum
toelatingsvereistes en enige ander vereiste/s uiteengesit in die Keuringsriglyne)

voltooi, geen sak-opmerking op die rekord verskyn nie, en met ʼn geweegde
gemiddelde persentasie van minstens 60% oor die duur van die program. In die
geval van ander studente sal voorkeur verleen word aan studente wat alle
vakke slaag met ʼn geweegde gemiddelde van minstens 60% oor die aantal
studiejare
2.10.3 In die geval van nagraadse ingeskrewe studente word voorgraadse prestasie
ook in oorweging geneem. Voorkeur sal gegee word aan studente wat vorige
grade met ʼn gemiddeld van minstens 60% geslaag het, en wat minstens 60%
verwerf vir die nagraadse kwalifikasie waarvoor hulle by aansoek geregistreer
is en wie ʼn motiveringsbrief by hul aansoek insluit.
2.13 In die geval van ingeskrewe voorgraadse studente, wanneer al die beskikbare plekke
gevul is, word aansoekers wat kwalifiseer op die waglys geplaas in volgorde van
akademiese meriete. Kansellasies kan in merietevolgorde van die waglys aangevul
word, mits daar plek is in die program.

2.14 Studente wat gekeur word vir B in Verpleegkunde I sou vrygestel kon word van
ooreenstemmende modules wat hul geslaag het, volgens die fakulteit se Erkenning
van Vorige Leer (EVL) en Kredietakkumulasie en Oordrag (RTT) Riglyne, maar sal al die
ontbrekende modules vir Verpleegkunde I moet aanvul, ten einde na Verpleegkunde
II in die daaropvolgende jaar te kan promoveer.
3.1 Ongeveer 15% van die plekke word gevul vanuit hierdie groep EN die kategorie van
huidige geregistreerde Universiteit studente (sien B.2 hierbo).
3.2 Keuring van hierdie groep aansoekers vind tydens die eerste keuringsgeleentheid
gedurende die tweede semester van die voorafgaande jaar plaas.
3.3 Hierdie plekke sal gereserveer word vir persone met naskoolse kwalifikasies en/of
beroepservaring, en wat nie by aansoek(gedurende die aansoek periode voor 31 Julie)
vir enige verdere kwalifikasies ingeskryf is nie, met voorkeur aan aansoekers met SA
burgerskap of permanente verblyfstatus of vlugtelingstatus. Kandidate wat by
aansoek geregistreer is vir enkele losstaande modules op tersiêre vlak vir nie-
graaddoeleindes, sal ook in hierdie kategorie oorweeg kan word.
3.4 Voorkeur sal gegee word aan aansoekers wat reeds voorheen ’n tersiêre kwalifikasie
of kwalifikasie (NQF vlak 7 en hoër) in die normale tyd, en met ’n geweegde gemiddelde
van 60% of hoër geslaag het, en ʼn motiveringsbrief by hul aansoek insluit.
3.5 Hierdie aansoekers word oorweeg op grond van akademiese meriete, die
demografiese profiel van die eerstejaarsinname sowel asook enkele ander
oorwegings (sien 3.4). ’n Kortlys van verdienstelike aansoekers word na oorweging van
alle aansoeke in hierdie kategorie saamgestel.
3.6 Aansoekers op die kortlys sal na persoonlike onderhoudvoering finaal gekeur word.
3.7 Uitnodiging na ’n onderhoud dien geensins as waarborg dat ’n aansoeker wel gekeur
sal word nie.

2. Aansoekers met amptelike vlugtelingstatus moet volgens wetgewing oorweeg word.
Slegs SA burgers kwalifiseer egter vir institusionele beurse en lenings, asook vir
NSFAS-befondsing. Aansoekers met vlugtelingstatus moet dus hul finansiële posisie
in ag neem wanneer ’n plek in die B in Verpleegkunde program opgeneem word.
2. Die uitsondering is vir aansoekers van School of Tomorrow (SOT) wat benewens die
voldoening aan die minimum toelatingsvereistes, moet SOT-aansoekers ook aan die
onderstaande NNT-vereistes vir toelating voldoen (ten einde universiteitsvrystelling
van die Suid-Afrikaanse Matrikulasieraad te verwerf):
AL QL
MAT
NNT Akademiese Kwantitatiewe
Wiskunde
Geletterdheid Geletterdheid
NNT minimum
65% 66% 34%
vereiste: SOT
4. SOT aansoekers in kategorie B1 moét die NNT voor die einde van 2024 aflê en moet
betyds (minstens 3 weke voor die toetsdatum) by www.nbt.ac.za vir die toetse
registreer ten einde ‘n plek in die betrokke toetssentrum te verseker.
1.2 Die sluitingsdatum vir die indiening van alle aansoeke in kategorie B1, B2 en B3 is 31
Julie van die jaar wat registrasie voorafgaan.
2.1 ʼn Volledige databasis van elke aansoeker word saamgestel uit die inligting wat deur
die aansoeker op die aanlyn-aansoekvorm ingevoer is. Die punte van die huidige
leerders en gematrikuleerdes (B1) word terselfdertyd rekenaarmatig verwerk.
2.2 Die skoolresultate word elektronies vasgelê en verwerk om die akademiese meriete
te bepaal wat gebruik word om 'n aansoeker se posisie op die merietelys te bepaal.
2.3 Die akademiese rekords van ingeskrewe studente (B2) sowel as dié van
gegradueerdes (B3), word per hand verwerk en ʼn gemiddelde persentasie word
bereken. Hierdie studente word dan op grond van akademiese prestasie oorweeg,
18
alhoewel ander faktore wel in die geval van nagraadse studente en gegradueerdes in
berekening gebring mag word (sien afdelings B2 en B3 hierbo).
2.4 Daar word van aansoekers verwag om 'n onderneming te voorsien dat alle inligting wat
verskaf word, akkuraat is. In die geval dat dit ontdek word dat 'n gekeurde aansoeker
vals inligting verskaf het of opsetlik of deur nalatigheid inligting teruggehou het, kan
hulle hul keuring verbeur.
3. KEURINGSGELEENTHEDE
3.1 Die eerste keuring vind in die tweede semester van die voorafgaande jaar plaas. By
hierdie geleentheid word hoofsaaklik die huidige leerders en gematrikuleerdes (B1)
en aansoekers met naskoolse kwalifikasies en/of beroepservaring (B3) oorweeg. Die
keuring van laasgenoemde aansoekers (wat op ʼn kortlys geplaas is) word eers finaal
na onderhoudvoering met lede van die Keurkomitee afgehandel (sien B2.12).
3.2 Die aansoeke van ingeskrewe studente (B2) word eers in Desember oorweeg nadat
hulle finale universiteitsuitslae beskikbaar is.
3.4 Verdere keuring van ongekeurde aansoekers vind voortdurend plaas, gebaseer op
die Akademiese meriete (B1) en indien hulle op ʼn waglys (B2 en B3) was, afhangende
van kansellasies wat van die verskillende subkategorieë ontvang is en beskikbare
plekke in die program.
3.5 Keuring word finaal afgehandel binne 2 weke na aanvang van die eerste semester
klasse vir Verpleegkunde I of sodra alle program plekke gevul is.
4.1 Na afloop van die keuringsvergaderings word aansoekers elektronies van die
keuringsuitslag in kennis gestel.
4.2 Alle aansoekers moet hul keuringsaanbod aanvaar of van die hand wys. Indien ‘n
aansoeker nie teen die responsdatum reageer nie, sal die aanbod vertsryk.
Heruitreiking van aanbiedinge sal slegs gemaak word indien daar nog plekke in die
program beskikbaar is. Die volgende bepalings is van toepassing op die relevante
keuringskategorieë:
4.2.4 Aansoekers wat in die finale keuringsrondte in Januarie van die registrasiejaar
gekeur word, sal 2 dae hê vanaf die uitreiking van die keuringsbriewe, om aan
19
te dui of hulle die aanbod aanvaar al dan nie.
4.3 Die plekke van aansoekers wat nie op die aanbod reageer nie, en wat nie
administratief opgespoor kan word nie, word gekanselleer.
5.1 Aansoekers wat gedurende die eerste keuringsronde voorwaardelik gekeur is, maar
wat na hul finale matriekuitslae nie meer voldoen aan die minimum
toelatingsvereistes nie, se keuringsaanbod sal verval.
G. KEURKOMITEE
Keuring van voornemende studente word gedoen deur 'n keuringspaneel,
saamgestel deur die Strategiese Komitee oor Werwing, Keuring en Toelating
(SKWKT), wat deur die Dekaan van die fakulteit voorgesit word. Alle besluite ten
opsigte van keuring word deur die keuringspaneel goedgekeur voordat dit met
aansoekers gekommunikeer word en besluite is finaal. Alle navrae rakende die
keuringsproses moet aan die Voorgraadse Keurings- en Toelatingskantoor in die
Sentrum vir Akademiese Administrasie (Tygerberg-kampus) gerig word by
tygselections@sun.ac.za
