NUST Mature Age Entry study guide

The Mature Age Entry Scheme at the Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST) is an alternative admission route for applicants who do not meet the normal admission requirements but hold at least a Junior Certificate or equivalent qualification. NUST describes it as operating "in the spirit of lifelong learning and redress of past disadvantage." It is aimed at older applicants: you must have reached the age of 23 on 1 January of the academic year you are applying for, and you should normally have completed full-time school or college education at least three years before that academic year. Selection is not based on a single test result. NUST states that selection is by means of appropriate written entrance tests, three years of relevant work experience, satisfactory references, and passing the NUST language proficiency test in English at a level that enables you to commence programmes of study as approved by Senate. Topics on this exam: Written entrance tests (appropriate written entrance tests) and NUST language proficiency test in English.
