CAO Late Application 2027-2028
CAO Late Application 2027-2028
We are pleased to inform you about CAO Late Application 2027-2028
All applications and/or administration fees received from 01 November will attract the “Late Payment” status and will be liable for the late fee applicable at the time (usually, but not always double the “On Time” administration fee).
Programmes that have reached or passed the advertised closing date and are advertised with the note: “No Late Applications will be considered” will receive the “Programme Close” status. This means that for such programmes no programme applications or administration fees received after the closing date will be considered by that institution. Examples are medicine, some health sciences, and some education programmes.
Each of the advertised programmes has a closing date. The closing date for each programme can be different; eg. B Health Science: Diagnostic Radiography (DU-D-RAD) has a closing date of 31 August while B Health Sciences in Medical Laboratory Science (DU-D-BLS) has a closing date of 30 September. Both programmes are for 2026 Entry.
Any applications and the fully paid administration fee received ON or BEFORE the advertised closing date will receive the status “WAITING FOR A DECISION”. This status indicates that the application is “On-Time” and will receive priority consideration by the institution/s to which you have applied. The administration fee would be the advertised “On Time” fee.
Even though the programmes’ closing date may have been reached or passed, applicants may still apply for them, but such applications will receive the “Late Application/Application Late” status and will be considered AFTER all the “On Time” applications have been considered. The administration fee remains that for “On Time” applications.
