<div>It is important that you study the admission requirements of the programmes you are interested in, thoroughly. The UFS calculates your AP score based on the NSC achievement scale. An AP score consisting of seven levels is used. Points will be awarded for six academic subjects (note: no points will be awarded for achievement points lower than 30%). One point is awarded for Life Orientation from achievement level 5 (60%) or higher when calculating your AP score for admission purposes.

<td colspan="2">To calculate your AP, you can use the following example:</td>

<tr>

<td>5 x 5 = 25</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>For one (1) further academic subject, you must obtain a level 4 (50%)</td>

<strong><em>Note that your achievement level in Life Orientation is excluded from the calculation of your AP score for the allocation of a merit bursary in your first year of study. See the section on Financial Aid (Bursaries and Loans).</em></strong> <strong>Are you a Top Achiever?</strong> If you have an AP score of 35 and above, you are a Top Achiever and qualify for a conditional admission offer linked to a merit bursary of a corresponding value to your AP score. This excludes admission to select programs. Another benefit of being a Top Achiever is that you will be invited to an early-bird registration, subject to meeting all the minimum requirements for the intended program of study with your final Grade 12 results.
