APS Calculator + University Matcher

Work out your APS score from your Grade 12 marks, then see which South African universities you qualify for — by faculty. Honest about minimums versus what's actually competitive.

Your seven Grade 12 subjects

Enter your final mark (or current average) for each subject as a percentage. Life Orientation is included for completeness but excluded from your APS — that's standard practice.

Field of study you're aiming for

Important: APS minimums shown here are based on published 2026 prospectuses and represent approximate guidelines. Final admission depends on your specific subject combination, NBT scores (where required), and faculty selection processes. Always verify directly with the university before making decisions. Other SADC universities — Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe — coming soon. Private universities (Boston, Varsity College, IIE-MSA, Rosebank) coming soon.
