STUDY VISAS
In terms of the Immigration Act No 13 of 2002, if you are resident outside of South Africa and are not a South African citizen or do not
have permanent residence, you are required to obtain a study visa to enter the Republic for the purpose of attending the University.
The offer of a study place by the University does not bind the Department of Home Affairs in any way to allow you to study in South
Africa, nor does it remove the need for you to obtain permission to enter the country. If you are offered a study place please apply
immediately for a study visa. Your application must be made to the nearest South African Embassy, Consulate or High Commission.
This procedure could take up to 8 weeks. The application form BI-1738, duly completed, must be accompanied by the following:
(a) Valid passport
(b) A fee (current details are available from the nearest South African Embassy, Consulate or High Commission)
(c) an official letter from UCT confirming provisional acceptance at the institution and the duration of the course
(d) in the case of a person under the age of 21 years.
(i) the particulars of the person in the Republic who will act as that learner’s guardian and a confirmatory letter from
that intended guardian; and
(ii) proof of consent for the intended stay from both parents or from the custodian parent, along with proof of sole
custody in the latter case
(e) a police clearance certificate
(f) medical and radiological reports
(g) documents relating to marital status if applicable
(h) a yellow fever vaccination certificate if that person travelled or intends travelling from or through a yellow fever endemic area
(i) in the case of a foreign state accepting responsibility for the applicant in terms of a bilateral agreement, a written
undertaking in respect of the departure of the applicant
(j) proof of medical cover with a medical scheme registered in terms of the Medical Schemes Act, 1998 (Act No. 131 of 1998),
or other medical insurance cover recognised in the Republic (access www.medicalschemes.com for a list of medical schemes
recognised in South Africa)
(k) proof of sufficient financial means
(l) payment of a deposit: Provided that such deposit shall be refunded to the depositor after the final departure of the applicant
or after a permit contemplated in section 25 of the Act has been issued to the applicant: Provided further that the payment
of the deposit may be effected by means of a bank guaranteed cheque or credit card at places where such facility exists.
(m) In the case of students from Africa, the payment of the deposit shall not be required: Provided that the Government of the
relevant African country submits a written undertaking to pay all costs relating to the deportation of the student, should this
become necessary.
(n) Other requirements as may be prescribed by the Consulate/Embassy
We recommend that you contact the nearest South African Consulate/Embassy before sending in your visa application, in order to
find out exactly what documents are needed, because requirements may change. It is very important that your study visa is valid for
studies at the University of Cape Town. If you have studied at another South African University or attended high school in South
Africa, your study visa needs to be changed for studies at the University of Cape Town.
International students residing within South Africa will not be able to register unless in possession of a valid study visa and proof of
medical cover. International students (Master’s and Doctoral students) living outside South Africa during the academic year may be
registered by the University without having to apply for a study visa. Such students need to obtain a suitable visa when visiting UCT
and their supervisors, and on arrival in Cape Town must report to IAPO with details of their visa.

International student fees
International students from outside the SADC region must pay the full fees, international term and administration fee before
registration. The International Academic Programmes Office (IAPO) will send you a fee pro-forma invoice on request detailing the
cost of your study for the duration of your stay. If you are a student from the SADC member countries*, you pay the local/South
African fee and the SADC administration fee. All non-South African students who qualify for local fee rates must pay the minimum
initial payment of academic, residence and administrative service fee before registration.
* The SADC countries are: Angola, Botswana, Democratic Republic of Congo, Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique,
