ICESA online application, courses, fees, faculties, requirements, and contact details

ICESA was one of the premier educational institutions in South Africa. The ICESA online application process was simple and straightforward. However, the institution was de-registered in 2025 by the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) for non-compliance, alongside other Educor-owned institutions. Prospective learners looking to apply to the institution should await further guidance or seek other colleges.

ICESA admission requirements

The college's admission requirements varied depending on the course and the level of education you wish to pursue the course.

Does ICESA have NSFAS?

Students from ICESA were eligible to receive the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) funding. But that is not possible now since the institution's closure.

ICESA College was once a premier destination for higher learning and online matriculation. The ICESA online application provided a simple and efficient way for prospective learners to gain admission into the institution. However, ICESA College was de-registered by the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) following its failure to comply with financial guidelines. Prospective students are therefore advised to consider applying to other schools or seek guidance from the concerned authorities.
