AND HAVE
(b) satisfied the following prerequisite in respect of Mathematics:
(i) obtained at least 40% (E symbol) in Mathematics HIGHER GRADE at matriculation level
or
(ii) obtained at least 50% (D symbol) in Mathematics STANDARD GRADE at matriculation level or
(iii) passed Mathematics at matriculation level prior to the differentiation
or
(iv) passed an equivalent ** examination in Mathematics or
(v) passed the Mathematics access module MAT011K – see the subject chapter on Mathematics
(c) Students who have matriculation exemption as specified in Sc1(1)(a) but who do not satisfy the minimum requirements for mathematics as stated in Sc1(1)(b): (i) A student may register for the Mathematics access
module (MAT011K) and a maximum of four of the undermentioned modules for non-degree purposes (NDP). As soon as MAT011 has been passed, the student may register for the National Certificate in Datametrics (concluding Rule Sc3(2) and (3)), and any of the undermentioned modules passed (excluding MAT011), will be recognised as credits forwards the certificate. Credit will be given for all FIVE first-level modules in Mathematics towards the National Certificate in Datametrics.

** A student who has NOT passed Mathematics at matriculation level at the required level, and has NOT passed either Mathematics on at least ‘O’-level for the General Certificate of Education (GCE) or NTC V Mathematics (or NTC IV Mathematics with at least 50%), but has a similar qualification in Mathematics, must FIRST write to the Registrar (Academic) or discuss the ma�er in person with the staff of the Department of Student Admissions and Registrations (Tel. (012) 429-4130) to determine whether it will be acceptable.

(ii) Students will be granted credit for not more than six modules towards the National Certificate in Datametrics for modules or courses passed BEFORE the Mathematics admission requirements to the College have been met.
(d) Students who do not have matriculation exemption as stated in Sc1(1)(a) but who hold a senior or school leaving certificate:
All such students (whether or not they have passed mathematics at the relevant level) must register for the access modules in both Mathematics and English. When both these examinations have been passed, the student may apply for a Senate discretionary conditional exemption certificate. NB
If you hold a senior or school leaving certificate without a matriculation exemption, matriculation or university admission endorsement, you should contact the University in connection with conditional exemption (eg on grounds of age (+23)).
If you hold a senior or school leaving certificate without a matriculation exemption, matriculation or university admission endorsement, and then began studies for an approved THREE- or FOUR-YEAR DIPLOMA (eg at a Teachers’ College, a Technikon, a University or a Nursing College that was affiliated to a South African university), you can normally apply to the University for a certificate of exemption on completion of the diploma.
A certified copy of the relevant document under Sc10(1)(a) AND evidence that you have satisfied the Mathematics requirements in Sc10(1)(b)(i)– (v) or (1)(c) must accompany your FIRST application for registration.
If you do NOT hold one of the certificates under Sc10(1)(a)(i)–(iv), you must apply to the University for a certificate of exemption or conditional exemption.
Evidence that you qualify for such exemption must accompany your FIRST application for registration.
See G13 in Part 1 of the Calendar in connection with applications for a certificate of exemption, conditional exemption and exemption by virtue of qualifications obtained in other countries.
(2) A student who has completed a BSc degree or another degree in Science or Engineering may not select subjects for the National Certificate in Datametrics which were included in the degree curriculum without special permission. His/Her application must be justified in writing. It must be accompanied by a statement of all the courses he/she has already passed, unless he/she completed the previous qualification(s) at Unisa. (3) Students for the National Certificate in Datametrics may not be
registered concurrently for any other qualification at this or at any other university.
Sc11 Duration of study and number
of study units per year
(1) Students may not be registered for more than five academic years(years of registration) towards the cerficate. It must be completed within this period of time.
(2) ON FIRST REGISTRATION and on RE-ENROLMENT at this University the number of study units for which a student may register is determined by ‘Number of study units per year’ in Section D3 in Part 1 of the Calendar.
NB
One course is regarded as the equivalent of four modules for the purpose of this rule.
Sc12
Subjects
The subjects in which modules for the certificate may be selected, are as follows:
Computer Science/Information Operations Research (OPS) Science (COS and INF) Physics (PHY)
Mathematics (MAT) Statistics (STA)
Sc13
Composition and completion
of the curriculum
NB 1 Students registering for semester modules MUST refer to the Information Brochure in connection with semester registrations.
See the model curricula under 6.5.
(1) The curriculum comprises TEN MODULES, and must be composed as follows:
(a) at least EIGHT modules must be selected from the list of core modules in 6.4. Note that at least three of these eight modules must be on second and/or third level (a third- level module is no longer compulsory);
(b) not more than two non-core modules (or one course on first level) may be selected.
Alternatively, a maximum of one course on first-year level (the equivalent of two modules) may be selected in a subject from the curricula of first Bachelor’s degrees of other Colleges.
(c) If a student is exempted from one or more modules from a completed B-degree (the maximum is five), the modules he/she must still pass to complete the certificate must include at least three on second and/or third level. (d) In addition to the TEN modules that must be selected for
the diploma curriculum in accordance with Sc13(1)(a)–(c), a student may register for a maximum of FOUR modules for non-certificate purposes concurrently with those for the certificate. Such modules may NOT be exchanged for other modules or courses.
(A�er the student has satisfied the requirements for the certificate, a final decision can be made (if necessary) in consultation with the Department of Student Admissions and Registrations as to which modules will be recognized for certificate and for non-certificate purposes.)
NB 2
Courses or modules passed by a graduate for non-degree purposes in accordance with the exception under General Rule G19 in Part 1 of the Calendar will NOT be credited towards the BSc degree or the National Certificate in Datametrics at a later date.
(2) Modules (or courses) for each year must be selected in such a way that the examination dates do not clash.
Sc14
Exemption
(i) A student may be exempted from a maximum of FIVE modules by virtue of degree courses or modules already passed towards a completed BSc degree. Note that modules or courses for which credit has already been obtained for a completed or uncompleted degree or university diploma may not be repeated for the National Certificate in Datametrics.
If the student qualifies for exemption from second-level modules, the compulsory three modules on 2nd and/or 3rd level for the National Certificate in Datametrics must be passed at Unisa. (ii) A student may, on grounds of an uncompleted BSc-degree at
Unisa, be granted credit from a maximum of eight core modules and two non-core modules as required under 6.4, towards a National Certificate in Datametrics. Subject to Sc11(1), such credits will be transferred from an uncompleted BSc degree in order for the student to complete the National Certificate in
Datametrics. On registration for the BSc degree a�er completion of the National Certificate in Datametrics, exemption will be granted towards the BSc degree from all courses passed for the certificate – see 6.6.1.
Sc15
Pass with distinction
A candidate shall be awarded the certificate with distinction if he/she obtains an average of at least 75% in three core modules on second (or third) level.
Modules from which exemption has been granted and those passed for non-degree purposes (NDP) in accordance with the provisions of Sc13(1)(d) above are NOT taken into consideration for this purpose without the approval of Senate.
See Sc6 in connection with the ordinary pass-mark and subminima.
