CACH refers to the Central Application Clearing House. The CACH sign-up service collects information on learners with grade 12 results who are seeking placement at a University, University of Technology, or Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) College at the beginning of the year.
Institutions and the sector education and training authorities (SETAs) use the database for placement. Where places exist and prospective students meet the requirements, institutions will contact them directly once they have accepted the offer on the CACH system.
To sign up (only for those who are not from the CAS pilot schools), visit the CACH website.
To lodge a query or request a redirect, you may contact CACH via the CACH Call Centre on 0860 690 722.
