The University of Johannesburg (UJ) has confirmed a list of qualifications that still have space available for the 2026 academic year through its late application (late enquiry) process. The available programmes span undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral levels across several faculties and are subject to availability as well as applicants meeting the minimum admission requirements.
UJ’s late enquiry system is designed for prospective students who did not apply during the main application period or who wish to check for remaining spaces after the release of final Grade 12 results. The university has cautioned that submitting a late enquiry does not guarantee admission, as final selection is dependent on space and academic eligibility.
