The University of Johannesburg (UJ) has confirmed a limited number of undergraduate qualifications that still have available space for the 2026 academic year through its late application (late enquiry) process. These opportunities are aimed at prospective students who missed the main application window or who are seeking alternative study options after the release of final matric results.
UJ has emphasized that late applications are space-dependent and that meeting the minimum admission requirements does not guarantee acceptance. Final selections will be made by the university once the late enquiry period closes.

Who Should Apply?
UJ’s undergraduate late application process is intended for:
- First-time entering students
- Applicants who did not apply during the main application period
- Applicants who meet the minimum entrance requirements for the available qualifications
Applicants should note that only qualifications with available space will appear on the late enquiry system.
Important Information for Applicants
UJ has confirmed the following conditions for late applications:
- Applications are online only
- No walk-in applications will be accepted
- Only South African residents may submit late enquiries
- Returning UJ students and transfer students will not be considered
The late enquiry system will open at 22:00 on Wednesday, 14 January 2026, and will close at 20:00 on Monday, 19 January 2026.
Final Reminder
Undergraduate spaces at UJ during the late application period are extremely limited and highly competitive. Applicants are strongly encouraged to prepare their documents in advance, ensure they meet the minimum requirements, and submit their late enquiry as soon as the system opens.
For many students, these undergraduate courses offer a valuable second chance to begin their studies at one of South Africa’s leading universities in 2026.
