ADC Access

ADC Access

ADC Access offers Extended Curriculum Programmes (degrees and diplomas) on behalf of the Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment (FEBE), the College of Business and Economics (CBE) and the Faculty of Humanities (HUM). These programmes are offered mainly on the Doornfontein Campus (FEBE & HUM), but also extended to the Soweto (CBE) and the Bunting Road Campuses (CBE).

The primary purpose of Extended Curriculum Programmes according to the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) ‘is to pro-actively improve the academic performance of higher education students who, despite meeting the relevant minimum admission criteria, are at risk of failure, dropping out or taking an excessively long time to complete their studies.’

Extended programmes incorporate substantial additional formal academic provision of a developmental nature, designed to enable such students to successfully complete a recognised university undergraduate qualification.
