About DUT Late Applications

Visit the official website to see whether there are still courses available, as this is the only justification for late applications to Durban University of Technology (DUT) for 2025-2026. Late applications will be considered only if courses remain available at the end of the selection process or if accepted students decline an offer, leaving the course open.

We can say that Durban University has reopen the application process for the second time to accommodate late candidates in 2025 for the remaining courses but with an extra application cost recieved by the Central Administrative Office (CAO).

Transfer Applicants for late Application

You are required to complete an application for transferring from one DUT programme to another. The form (Form 23 – DUT Students Transferring From One Faculty/Department To Another) is available on the student portal (click here to access the form). You may request the form from the relevant Faculty Office.
Please ensure that this is done timeously (at least two months before registration) for your application to be considered. Late applications will not be considered.

DUT does consider admitting students from other universities subject to them meeting the relevant university and departmental requirements. Such students are required to complete an application form which is available on the student portal http://dutstudent/DUT%20Student%20Forms/Forms/AllItems.aspx or may be requested from the appropriate Faculty Office.

- Original academic transcript
- A certificate of conduct,
- Matric certificate

Will DUT Open Late Application For applicants who could not apply during the general application window

It depends on the availability of courses after the official closing date. In general, DUT does not accept late applications after the closing date. However, if there are still available courses after October 31, they will most definitely reopen applications for late admission to 2025.

Because late applications are not guaranteed at Durban University of Technology (DUT) for the 2025 academic year, applicants are urged to take advantage of the first application window, which ends on October 31, 2024, to ensure a course for the 2025 academic year.
