Most of the prosperous students going into a university or college find it difficult to accept the rejection from a faculty they’ve applied for.
Some become frustrated and stressed following such painful rejection but that can no longer become a challenge because the Central Application Clearing House (CACH) is available to assist them.
CACH is a platform for students who haven’t been admitted to universities or colleges of their choice for the academic year of 2023.
This is an initiative launched in 2013 by the Department of Higher Education that focuses on applications after they have been declined by universities and colleges.
This platform will match your application with available courses at other institutions across the country, you still have a chance of making it through to study at higher institutions and your dreams to come true.
Let’s get started.
This is how it works
All universities and colleges share available courses with the CACH and the system will try to match them with your application.
You must have applied and declined at any institution to get services from CACH. They’ll fetch your matric results directly from the department; you don’t need to worry about applying once your data is made available on the platform.
CACH will send your information to all institutions for space to study and at SETA for available learnerships. If there is available space and you meet the requirements, the institution will contact you with an offer.
The assistance is for students who have applied at both private and public colleges across the country. This will also help you avoid enrolling in illegal institutions because of your desperation.
It’s your ideal route to finding the right course at the right institution.
*Important note*
CACH doesn’t guarantee that you’ll be offered a space to study.
If you’re looking to study at a specific institution, you’ll not receive the most satisfying service from the CACH matching system.
