​How does subject choice guidance fit into the career decision-making process?

There are various factors that play a role in the process of making a successful career choice. One of the first considerations is a realistic and informed subject choice for grades 10 to 12. A learner's subject choice can have significant implications in terms of a future career.

Often, there is lack of understanding regarding the important considerations that contribute to making the correct subject choice. In order to support learners in their subject choice process, Stellenbosch University's Centre for Student Recruitment and Career Advice, offers professional subject choice guidance to grade 9 learners.

What does the service entail?

Due to the third wave of COVID-19 we now offer the psychometric assessment online only. We provide constant support and supervision by a registered psychologist using the screen share function on Microsoft Teams.

An assessment includes a 4 hour psychometric assessment of personality, aptitude and interests, and a 1 hour individual feedback session, as well as a report of the results and recommendations to be emailed to you within 2 weeks of the assessment.

Recommendations are made based on the client's unique profile and can therefore include programmes at a variety of higher education institutions. This opportunity is offered to all prospective students and not only to those who wish to study at Stellenbosch University.

Cost of the service: The cost is R2350 (Monday to Friday) / R2900 (Saturday).
