Admissions Guidebook for Higher Education Institutions in Tanzania
Applicants holding certificates issued by the National Examination Council of Tanzania
and holders of NTA Level 6 Certificates are not required to submit any documents when
lodging an application.
11.1 How to select programmes
Since it is an applicant’s decision to select preferred programmes in the preference order
he/she likes, applicants are strongly advised to list their programme selections in their order
of preference, starting with their highest preference programme and ending with the lowest
preference programme.
Each programme has been assigned a code; therefore, applicants are required to know the
codes of the programmes they wish to pursue. Before lodging an application, the applicant
should first go through Table 3 and record the code of each programme he/she would wish
to join.
11.2 Conditions on programme selection
When selecting programmes applicants are required to observe that they:
• Can select up to eight programmes from different institutions
• Cannot select less than six programmes from different institutions
• Cannot select more than three programmes from one institution.
11.3 Conditions on programme change
The conditions for programme change are that applicants:
• Can add, delete or change the order of their preference before the closing deadline
• Can only change their preferences through the Internet or mobile phone SMS
messages,
NB: Applicants cannot change their preferences through e-mails, letters or fax to
TCU or through institutions they have applied for admission.
12. The Selection Process
Possession of the required entry qualifications does not guarantee admission into the
institution of the applicant’s choice. If the applicant is not selected for the first preference,
he/she will be considered equally with all other applicants for his/her second preference,
and so on until his/her 8th preference.
13. Successful applicants
Successful applicants will be notified upon completion of the selection process.
