The North-West University gives people a place in the world in addition to an education. Students have a lot of academic flexibility and choice, which enables them to reach their full potential and begin preparing for their professions.
Welcome to the North West University
The Northwest University is dedicated to operating as a unitary, integrated, multi-campus university that supports equity, redress, and globally competitive teaching and research on all three of our campuses.
Our eight faculties’ primary pursuits—teaching-learning and research—are linked with civic involvement and innovation, and the majority of them accept both on-campus and online students.
In the eight faculties of NWU, the majority of which accept both contact and distance learners, the university’s basic activities of teaching, learning, and research are entwined with community involvement and innovation.
Every year, applications are accepted from March through September 30. (Applications submitted after this date will not be accepted–please apply during the application cycle before the closing date to ensure your application is considered.)
