Message from the Dean

Some years ago, Henry Tappan, President
of the University of Michigan, wrote:
‘Of all mere human institutions there are none so
important and mighty in their influence as Universities;
because when rightly constituted, they are made up of
the most enlightened, and the choicest spirits of our
race; they embrace the means of all human culture,
and they act directly upon the fresh and up-springing
of a nation. To them must be traced science, literature
and art; the furniture of religious faith; the lights of
industry; the moving forces of civilisation; and the unity
of humanity.’

Prof Jerry Pillay
Dean: Faculty of Theology and Religion

Undergraduate programmes

Important information for all prospective students for 2023
ƒ The admission requirements and general information in this brochure apply to students who apply for admission to the University of Pretoria
  with a National Senior Certificate (NSC) and Independent Examination Board (IEB) qualifications.

ƒ School of Tomorrow (SOT) and Accelerated Christian Education (ACE): The University of Pretoria no longer accepts qualifications awarded by
  these institutions.
ƒ General Education Development (GED): South African GED graduates who graduated up to 2019 may be considered for admission provided
  they qualify for an exemption certificate issued by USAf and comply with university admission requirements, as well as faculty subject

Important faculty-specific information on undergraduate programmes for 2023
    The closing date for all selection programmes is 30 June 2022. The University of Pretoria has decided not to set a specific closing date for
    applications to non-selection programmes for 2023. Applications will close when the available study spaces are filled (close on availability
    of space). Once the available number of study places for a specific programme are filled, no further applications for that particular
    programme will be considered. All applicants are therefore strongly advised and encouraged to submit their applications as soon as
    possible after 1 April 2022 and to check the application site (UP Student Portal) regularly.

ƒ The following persons will be considered for admission: Candidates who have a certificate that is deemed by the University to be equivalent to the
  required National Senior Certificate (NSC) with university endorsement; candidates who are graduates from another tertiary institution or have been
  granted the status of a graduate of such an institution; and candidates who are graduates of another faculty at the University of Pretoria.

                                            the marginalised and the unheard, so in Grade 12,
                                            I applied to study at UP. At first, I was a little sceptical
                                            about enrolling for a programme in the Faculty of
                                            Theology and Religion, but by the end of my
                                            first-year I realised how many opportunities
                                            this Faculty offers.

                                            Employment opportunities exist not only
                                            in churches and in the mission field, but
                                            there are also a range of opportunities
                                            in various communities and other
                                            social spaces.

A qualification in this Faculty enables one to undertake
both theoretical and practical work. Enrolling for a
programme here, has definitely been one of best
decisions I have ever made.’

                                                       Along my journey, I have learnt to work under pressure, to work in a
