How to Check 2026 Admission Status at UCT

The University of Cape Town is committed to providing a student-centered experience and has made notable enhancements to streamline the online application and admission processes. We highly encourage students to utilize the online application platform to monitor their admission status, rather than visiting the campus. On-campus visits should be limited to instances where technical difficulties arise or if assistance is needed regarding the application status.

Application Confirmation and Tracking

Once your application is successfully entered into the system, you will receive an SMS confirming that the UCT has received it. Please note that this message does not indicate acceptance into the program.

Applicants can check their admission status online by following the steps outlined in this guide. It is recommended to track your application progress one to three weeks after submission to stay informed about any updates or additional requirements.

Acceptance Notification and Registration

Successful applicants will receive an SMS notifying them of their acceptance into the University, along with details about registration dates and the start of lectures.

To secure your place, you must complete the registration process within two working days of receiving the final acceptance notice. Failure to do so may result in your place being offered to another student, as spaces fill up quickly.

Declined Applications and Alternative Options

If your application is declined, you can sign up online at cach.cas.ac.za for alternative opportunities
