Frequently Asked Questions

1.What are the admission requirements for South Africans at Indian universities?

Most universities require a South African matric certificate (Grade 12). For specialised
courses like medicine or engineering, you may need to meet subject requirements (e.g.
Maths, Science). Some programs require entrance exams (like NEET for medicine or JEE for engineering), but many universities accept international students directly based on acceptable school results.

2. Are Indian degrees recognised in South Africa?

Yes, the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA) recognises Indian degrees. For professional fields (like medicine, dentistry, law, and engineering), you may need to register with a South African professional council and possibly sit for board exams.

3. How much do tuition fees cost for Indian Universities?

Tuition is generally much cheaper than in South Africa, the UK, or the US. On average:

  • Undergraduate courses: USD $2,000–$5,000 (±R40,000–R100,000) per year.
  • Medical/Engineering courses: USD $5,000–$12,000 (±R100,000–R240,000) per
    year. This varies by university and course. This cost is prior to applying the 50%
    scholarship or fee reductions for international students.

4.Is there a registration fee to be paid for your services?

There is a registration fee of $500 paid to the university to facilitate your registration; this is offset against your fees once the student has been accepted.

5. Do I need a visa to study in India?

Yes. South Africans need a Student Visa (S-visa). You must first secure admission and then apply at the Indian High Commission in Pretoria or the Indian Consulate in Johannesburg/Durban.

Do I need medical insurance?

Yes. Student visa requirements include having medical insurance. Some universities also offer student health plans.
