Every university deadline. One calm plan.
Oriva tracks every application, NBT, requirement and deadline across every South African university — so your child never misses a thing, and you can see it's handled.
CAPS · IEB · Cambridge · UCT to UNISA
Applying to university in South Africa is chaos.
Different dates for every university. Competitive courses that close months earlier. NBTs you have to book yourself. Documents, fees, and result uploads with their own deadlines. Miss one — lose a year.
One place to run every application.

Questions, answered.
Which universities do you cover?+
The top South African universities — UCT, Wits, Stellenbosch, UP, UJ, UKZN and more, across CAPS, IEB and Cambridge streams. We're adding institutions every cycle.
Do you track NBT deadlines too?+
Yes. NBT booking windows are part of every application timeline, with reminders before each — including the earlier Health Sciences and Science deadlines.
CAPS, IEB and Cambridge?+
All three. The course matcher and APS logic work for each curriculum.
What does the parent see?+
A calm oversight view: how many applications are on track, the next deadline, and whether NBTs are booked — plus a weekly email digest. Support without nagging.
Is my child's data safe (POPIA)?+
Yes. Your data is private to your family, secured with row-level access control, and never sold. You can delete it at any time.
Do you submit applications for us?+
No — and we're honest about that. Oriva organises and tracks everything so nothing is missed; the family submits on each university's own portal.
How do I cancel?+
Anytime, from your billing page. Both paid plans are monthly — cancel whenever you like and you keep access until the period ends.
From application chaos to one calm plan.
The whole family can see it. Start free — no card needed.
