How to Calculate University of Johannesburg (UJ) APS

How to determine your Admission Point Score (APS)

An Admission Point Score (APS), explained below, has been developed for the National Senior Certificate (NSC) and the Independent Examinations Board (IEB) based on the Achievement Rating of each subject. The total APS is the sum of the achievement ratings of the six school subjects. Life Orientation is not counted in the calculation of the total APS

 In order to determine the Admission Point Score (APS) the following principles need to be taken into consideration:

  • Applicants with the following results, WAEC, Diplome or Exam D’Etat, Certificado de Habilitscoes Literarias, Ensino Medio and Baccalaureat should be linked with the Ordinary Level (O) Grades on UJ's Student database.
  • Applicants with the following results, HIGCSE, NSSC (HL), AS Level, IB (SL) and KCSE should be linked to the South African NSC (N) Grades on UJ's Student database.
  • Applicants who have set for either A Level or IB (HL) should be linked to the (A) Grades on UJ's Student database
