How MUT scores you

Every university does this differently.

Could not be checkedWe do not calculate this

MUT APS

MUT’s own pages disagree on the basic rule: its general admissions page says APS is "the best five subjects"; its IT programme page says "a minimum of 24 points in the best six subjects excluding Life Orientation". We show both rather than pick one - see each programme’s note. MUT_APS is non-computable until this is resolved with MUT directly.

MUT’s own pages disagree on whether APS uses five or six subjects, so we cannot safely compute a score.

This score means nothing at another university – it can’t be compared with any other university’s.

What we couldn’t confirm
  • MUT’s own general admissions page states APS is calculated from the best FIVE subjects; its IT programme page states best SIX excluding Life Orientation. The two official sources disagree, so we show both without picking one and do not compute a score.

MUT’s general admissions page states APS is calculated from your best FIVE subjects; this programme’s own page states best SIX excluding Life Orientation. We show both rather than pick one - confirm with MUT directly. Source PDF is labelled "2026", not yet confirmed as the 2027-intake version. No official 2027 closing date was found (only unverified third-party claims).

Bachelor of Health Sciences: Medical Laboratory Science

Applied and Health Sciences · 4 years

No points cut-off published for this one – see the note below.

  • English: level 4 (50% or more)
  • Life Sciences: level 4 (50% or more)
  • Mathematics: level 4 (50% or more)
  • Physical Sciences: level 4 (50% or more)
  • Interview and placement test – Applicants must undergo an interview and placement testing.

Medical laboratory (diagnostic) science specifically, not general biology research. A "24" appeared near these subjects in the source table but its exact meaning was ambiguous in extraction, so we are not publishing it as the APS. Duration includes 6 months of work-integrated learning in year 3 and 12 months of clinical practice in year 4. Source PDF labelled "2026", not yet confirmed for 2027.

What we couldn’t verify at MUT

We publish our gaps instead of hiding them.

partially verified

5 programmes across Engineering, IT, Health Sciences, Accounting

CONFLICT: MUT’s general admissions page says APS uses your best five subjects; its IT programme page says best six excluding Life Orientation - both are shown, flagged, neither picked. Figures are raw-extracted from official MUT PDFs, which are labelled "2026" and not yet confirmed as the 2027-intake versions. No APS number was stated for the Civil or Electrical Engineering diploma pages we read, so those show subject minimums only. Mechanical Engineering’s subject table was not reached before stopping - full gap. The Medical Laboratory Science APS figure was ambiguous in extraction and is deliberately not published. No official 2027 closing date found anywhere on mut.ac.za (only unverified third-party claims).
