We are pleased to show the step-by-step guide on the Great Zimbabwe University (GZU) Online Application Guide for 2024–2025 admission.
The Great Zimbabwe University (GZU), previously recognized as Masvingo State University, has made its mark as a renowned institution, emerging from the Chetsanga Report of August 1995.

Now, aspiring students have the opportunity to apply for the academic session of 2024–2025.
