Duration

All students will be required to write a set of formal class tests at mid-term of the first semester (mid-March).

Using the marks achieved in these tests, together with the results of the school-leaving examinations and the National Benchmark Tests (NBTs), selected students will be counseled to convert to the four-year Extended Degree Programme (EDP).  

The EDP is structured such that students entering the program will receive additional academic and general support to improve the chances of graduating in minimum time.

The EDP offers students who are struggling the opportunity to establish a sound educational foundation, with an appropriate distribution of their academic load over a four-year period. The minimum time for a student on the EDP to complete the BSc degree is four years.
