The place is beautiful but the wind in so strong. It can be sunny and then suddenly the wind picks up and youre shivering. Youll put on layers to combat the wind but then when the wind isnt blowing, youll PERSPIRE. Academically its world-class but as a place to visit, give it a pass

Open and big place. Many convenient places to eat, such as outside of libraries.There are strict COVID restrictions therefore in the libraries there are only a limited amount of people allowed inside and have to wear a mask the whole duration if your study time in the library.

Great University. Diverse student body with a capable faculty. Over the years they have become more conscious to issues affecting society and the student body. Some faculties need better management

Its reputation says it all. Amazing campus and great lecturers based on my experiences. Parking is an issue as there is very few parking vs staff and students. Online registration is ok but there is a few issues with it which gets ignored every year. These issues are not being addressed.

UCT is an incredible school. Students are very well rounded, academically and many are involved in extracurriculars. The campus is absolutely beautiful. There are majors and classes for any subject. Sports are really good, and also fun to watch. Rugby games are a blast. People are very friendly, and there are many nice study and hang out spots on campus.

Staff are completely misinformed. I tried cancelling my studies for weeks before the course is due to start, yet I still havent managed. Im told to pay a cancellation of registration even though Im not even registered. Truly no value or respect for students.

Ahh, UCT. I did my degree here for 3 years, and it was the best time of my life. UCT is a colonial construct however, and this has brought with it many issues, mainly those from the past. It is possibly the most beautiful campus on the planet, with Table Mountain standing behind, like some watchful ward.

This place is filled with some amazing buildings. Surrounded by nature at the foot of table mountain. Had so much fun just strolling around the university. There is so much to see, just amazing art and some awesome views. Definitely worth the walk that i took. You could even take a walk from here up to Rhodes memorial and then hike up the mountain. There is enough parking and lots of spot to hang out with friends. I went there to go and shoot some epic videos. Had a good time.

Hated and loved by its students in equal measure. Everyone loves being a student at UCT until they get university work. Ultimately theres a reason it is always in the top 2 universities on the continent on every university ranking list. Hard to get into, hard to afford but a quality education and recognisable name on your CV for the rest of your career.

An amazing institution with a vibrant collective of students. Amazing food that is affordable for students, with different societies that help maintain the student body. The free transportation system, Jammie Shuttles, may be a bit unreliable but is a quick and efficient mode of transport.

Great university with a beautiful history and beautiful old buildings. Loads of old heritage.Do take sometime to learn about the history of this university and then go for a scroll around it. The upper parts of forestry behind the university is really beautiful in one can get lost in the beauty of the mountain slopes.

Review №73

Its on a moutain, its got the views but also the leg workout. Does have a good transport service from various locations to the campus but can get crowded. Finding parking is a nightmare, but not impossible if you have the disk (still hard). Though I do like the old school vibe of the buildings.

Review №74

A very good university. High quality education that is well respected. The most beautiful campus of any university I have ever seem with sweeping views over Cape Town.

Review №75

This place will give you all the kind of fun you are looking for, but at the same time you are expected to pass. If you find yourself here, dont be arrogant and assume that just because you got good marks at high school, university is going to be a breeze. Its not, it is hours of hard work and dedication. You need to start studying from day one. Set your self goals. Believe in yourself. Follow excellence and success will follow you. If you love sport like me, then you are still at a right place. I joined a chess team and its been great you get a chance to meet one of the greatest chess players around the country. Have fun and enjoy in UCT. Surround yourself with few idiots, by idiots I mean people who always think out of the box. This place is one of the greatest ever. I can spend all day talking about UCT.

Amazing university thats as diverse as it gets. The lectures are indeed intuitive and they insist on getting you to learn how the answer is derived rather than just the answer. The staff and faculty are amazing as well. I am an international student here and I can honestly say, best university Ive been to.

It’s a nice university except sometimes if you eat outside, some birds will attack you and even take some of your food. Other than that, it’s alright.

A world class in institution of higher learning, one of South Africas best. Diverse cultures, traditions and nations all meet in the same space. It has gone through a polotical strain but it does not negate the fact that it offers a great service with regards to education, leadership and creating a platform for great advances in society as a whole.
