for admission to the University with the normal Grade 12 Senior
Certificate with full university exemption by converting their grade

student to determine if he/she meets the minimum requirements to
gain entry into:
Ÿ The University of Limpopo
and
Ÿ A specific programme of choice offered by a Faculty within the

recognised 20 credit subjects as stipulated by specific requirements of the
Faculties. Achievement levels are as follows (Note Life Orientation is not
used in the APS calculation):
