To be admitted to AFDA’s degree courses you must:

1. Complete and submit the online application form with all the necessary documentation

2. Set up an interview at the AFDA campus of your choice so that we may assist you with the application procedure. We recommend that applications are submitted as early as possible.

If provisionally accepted, you will receive a registration form. Complete it and submit it personally or by mail along with the non-refundable registration fee and any outstanding documentation. You may do this at any time of the year, but not after the enrolment window has closed.

Once AFDA has received proof of your registration payment as well as your form, your position in the class will be confirmed. AFDA has a limited intake of students into the Bachelor of Arts Motion Picture Medium and Live Performance Degrees first year class. If the registration fee is not paid, AFDA automatically assumes that you have chosen not to enroll. We strongly recommend that students applying for loans or visas be processed well in advance of the enrolment window.

The student will be required to come to their chosen campus during the enrolment window.

The academic fees (according to your chosen payment plan) are due. Failure to pay during this period may result in the loss of your reservation on the class list. Please note that candidates on the waiting list will be considered at the end of the enrolment window period. Any outstanding documentation and certified copies must be submitted during this period.

Please note that due to the implementation of ‘Act no. 34 of 2005: National Credit Act’ all clients applying to pay their fees via an AFDA Payment Plan will have to undergo a credit verification in accordance with the NCA. This process is prescribed by the Act to determine affordability of the payment plan selected. All payment plans excluding Plan A Upfront will be subject to the above verification. This process will only take please during the enrolment window next year.
