The higher education department (DHERST) launched the Grade 12 National Online Selection on the 21st of December 2022. So what does the launching mean; and when will DHERST publish the 2022 Grade 12 Selections Lists for the tertiary institutions in the country?
Here are 5 points that students, parents and guardians should know as they check their names on National Online Selection System (NOAS).
Students to check their selection status (1)
Students can view their selection STATUS through their individual National Online Application Accounts. That means that the 2022 Grade 12 students should use their NOAS login details to access their accounts and confirm their selection status for the 2023 academic year.
By now you should know if you have secured a tertiary institution placement. If you have questions about the 2022 Grade 12 student selections for 2023, check this article.
In fact, this is the final outcome of your School Leaver's Choice on the National Online Application System.
The selection status on DHERST National Online Selection System is 'provisional' only. That means two things:
- first, the HEI will send you an offer letter, also called the acceptance letter, to confirm your placement with the institution; and
- second, DHERST will formally publish your name on the 2022 Grade 12 selection list PDF on its website.
What should you do if you are selected? (2)
- Are you on TESAS (AES, HECAS)?
- Will you be a SELF-SPONSORED student?
- When are you likely to see your name on the 2022 DHERST selection list?
- When is the 2022 REGISTRATION and ORIENTATION WEEK?
- Should you inform your institution that you've accepted that offer?
DHERST new Grade 12 data (3)

- 31, 817 students were nominated to sit the exams;
- 26,544 students certified;
- 16,171 total HEI quota ;

Important Announcement from DHERST 2022 (4)
- Your (Grade 12 Students) data from the MyNOAS data field has been forwarded to the Higher Education Institution that selected you. The HEI will communicate directly with you to inform you about the specific details of the institution, including how to accept your offer.
- Note that the response contained therein (in the NOSS) is not an admission confirmation. You should expect to receive official notice through an admissions offer letter directly from your Higher Education Institution (HEI).
