South Africa: Higher Education and Training On 2017 Higher Education Fees

Response to media inquiries on 2017 Higher Education fees

The Ministry and Department of Higher Education are currently engaged in the prescribed and necessary processes to reach an understanding on fees for universities and other institutions of higher education for the 2017 academic year.

These processes, which among others include receiving a thorough and considered report and recommendations from the Council on Higher Education, consultations with Vice Chancellors and Principals, and discussions with democratically elected student representatives, are currently underway.

Once these prescribed processes have been completed, an announcement regarding fees for the 2017 academic year will be made.
