Cape College (CapCol) is committed to providing students with the skills and education needed to thrive in their chosen careers. However, the cost of higher education can often pose a challenge for many aspiring students. Fortunately, the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) offers financial assistance to eligible students, covering tuition fees, accommodation, and other essential study-related expenses. If you’re planning to enrol at Cape College for the 2025-2026 academic year, applying for NSFAS funding can help make your educational journey more affordable.

Capricorn College is a product of a merger of three Colleges with very distinct and diverse historical backgrounds. These were the former Pietersburg Technical College (PTC), Bochum College of Education and the former Northern Province Community College (NPCC). Capricorn TVET College has become the first choice institution for further education for many young people as the programmes offered directly respond to the priority skills demands of the South African economy. The College further offers theory and practical learning. There are many exit options for young people to choose from.
