The University of Johannesburg (UJ) generally does not offer a dedicated late application window after the standard application deadline closes. However, there are a few things to consider:

Limited Exceptions:

  • Internal Transfers: Current UJ students seeking to transfer to a different program within the university might have the option to apply late through a separate internal process. Contact your faculty advisor or the UJ Change of Programme Unit for details. (https://www.uj.ac.za/alumni/update-your-details/)

Alternatives to Consider:

  • Next Application Cycle: If you miss the application deadline for the current year, you’ll need to wait until the next application cycle opens, which typically starts in May/June. Monitor the UJ website (https://www.uj.ac.za/) for announcements regarding the upcoming application period.
  • Explore Other Institutions: Several South African universities offer late application windows. Research other institutions with programs that align with your interests.

Here are some resources that might be helpful:
