How it works
UJ uses the 7-point achievement scale: 80–100% is 7 points down to 0–29% at 1 point.
Your APS is the total of six school subjects. Life Orientation is not counted.
The highest possible APS is 42. UJ uses your Grade 11 or Grade 12 results for provisional admission.
Maths Literacy isn’t converted. Instead, programmes that accept it set a higher minimum APS for Maths Literacy applicants.
This calculator follows the method UJ publishes for 2027 entry, checked against its own documents: UJ Undergraduate Prospectus 2027 · UJ: Apply. It’s an estimate: the university’s own assessment of your final results decides admission.
