Preface
The Tanzania Commission for Universities (TCU) through its mandate as spelt out in the
Universities Act, Cap. 346 of the Laws of Tanzania in collaboration with the National Council for
Technical Education (NACTE), National Examinations Council of Tanzania (NECTA), the Higher
Education Students Loans Board (HESLB) and higher education institutions have improved the
Central Admissions System (CAS) which has been in operation since 2010/2011 academic year.
Through the system, applicants to higher education institutions are able to lodge applications
online and be selected to programmes of their choice centrally. The processing is based on the
minimum programme entry and other requirements of each institution in the country including
admission capacity and other parameters. The decision on the actual admission of applicants is
then made by the individual institutions through their Governing Boards and Senates.
The Admission Guidebook (Guidebook) is meant to provide the applicants with basic information
on matters related to the entire process of admissions through the Central Admission System. The
Guidebook indicates the programmes offered in each higher education institution as approved by
TCU or NACTE. In addition, it indicates the minimum entry requirements, institutional capacity,
fee structure for each programme, maximum loanable amount for programmes of national priority
and other relevant information (For more information on Loans the applicant is advised to refer to
the Guidelines and Criteria for Issuance of Student Loans and Grants for 2013/2014 academic year
issued by the Higher Education Students’ Loans Board).
The Guidebook provides a step-by-step procedure on how to apply through CAS using the Internet
or SMS. Applicants are therefore, strongly advised to read the Admissions Guidebook before they
start lodging their applications. For further inquiries, prospective applicants and the general public
are advised to contact TCU or NACTE through the addresses indicated below:

Applicants should note that there are two modes of higher education delivery, namely,
Conventional or Regular mode and Open and Distance Learning (ODL). Conventional mode
of programme delivery is classroom-based while ODL is a mode where there are no regular
classes. Students under the ODL mode conduct their study using self-instruction materials and
structured face-to-face interaction with their lecturers or instructors.
Applicants should thus bear in mind that all programmes offered by the Open University of
Tanzania (OUT) are delivered through ODL mode. There are no regular classes or continuous
Interaction with lecturers/ instructors at the Open University of Tanzania. Likewise, some
programmes offered by Kampala International University Dar es Salaam Constituent College
(KIUDCC) are also through the ODL mode.
5. CAS Institutions
The Government directed from 2010/2011 academic year onwards that higher education
institutions should admit students through the Central Admission System. Institutions not
participating in CAS will continue to process the admissions through their institutions and
upload the selected applicants into the system for TCU and NACTE approval. Table 2 shows
the list of participating institutions in CAS in 2013/2014 academic year. Institutions which will
participate in CAS after the publication of this guide book will be included provided they are
approved by TCU and NACTE. Applicants seeking admission into institutions not listed in
Table 2 should apply directly to the respective institutions.
