Welcome to the National Online Application System (NOAS). This platform is for the current school leaver application for selection for tertiary admissions in the country.-

Please note that DHERST will be using this interface to post important notices, hence, do check this interface on a regular basis. .-

The NOAS has three types of users:

1. The Secondary School Principals: To issue student credentials, monitor student and patron activities
2. The Patrons: To enter Differential Aptitude Test (DAT) and the Confidential Evaluation of Students (CES) scores of school leavers.
3. The Grade 12 students: To read programmes requirements and apply for Academic and Technical Study Programmes (ATSP).

It is important for schools, students and parents to note that ATP in student NOAS account will appear when there is a match between the subject combinations and the programmes requirements set by the institution. If students are do not view preferred programmes means that the subject combination did not match the subject requirement set by the institution.

Furthermore, the DHERST is pleased to inform all the school principals, school leavers and parents that the STEM subjects have been included in the system. This means that institutions have access to these information for possible consideration for their programmes requirements.

All applicants are strongly urged to visit the “My Eligible Programme” interface to read about the academic and technical programmes and its requirements (GPA, subjects and subject grade requirements) before making any choices.
