How do you travel to school do they provide transportation or its just a walking distance to school?

[@KamogeloMaponya]

Hi , the UCT shuttle is right outside CampusKey. you can use that to get to school

[@temiadeoti6420]

hey, do you know when first years should start applying in their matric year?

[@KamogeloMaponya]

You can apply as soon aa you know that you will be coming to UCT or any surrounding varsity . That way you don’t have to pay until you know for sure that you have been accepted!

[@user-zp6bv9vs6i]

Heyy, thank you for the video, I'm always so relieved when I find a video showing what I searched for lol:) I wanted to ask how far it is to walk from Campus Key to UCT upper Campus, or do you suggest using the Jammies?

[@KamogeloMaponya]

Hi hi ,I am glad you found this video helpful😊 If you live at CampusKey in Rosebank , you may easily walk to upper campus , however it is uphill so may take anywhere from ten to fifteen minutes to get there . If you live at CK OBS , would rather suggest you take a Jammie as this is a little further from campus. Walking upper campus to observatory is usually for emergencies or when you doing it for fitness reasons . On any other day , rather take the OBS Jammie which stops in front of Obs square . Hope I answered your question 😜

[@user-zp6bv9vs6i]

Ohh ok thank you🫶🏽

[@melloRikhotso]

@@KamogeloMaponya hey so are they any jammies available close to the accommodation?

[@KamogeloMaponya]

@@melloRikhotso Yes there is the OBS Jammie right in front of CK

[@melloRikhotso]

@@KamogeloMaponya thank you ,will u recommend ck ?

[@atlegangbotlhale1483]

Hi kamo i love you so much❤and i wanted to ask, is this private accomodation available to first years too? Cause i know some residences are for 2nd years❤

[@KamogeloMaponya]

you are so sweet! CampusKey is for anyone . So if you are in first year next year , you can definitely live there

[@atlegangbotlhale1483]

​@@KamogeloMaponya Thank you so much❤❤❤

Is Campus Key Nsfas accredited?

[@KamogeloMaponya]

To my understanding it is not

[@kingdomskingmaker9897]

It's best to do some research because when I last checked it is

[@tatendaishemukuna9131]

Hey Kamo, hope you're alright I was wondering in which order you'd rate these off campus accommodations? Peak Studios Fountain Rez My Domain Roscommon House

[@KamogeloMaponya]

All of these places are really amazing . Let me try give you a ranking. 1) Fountain Rez This is quite popular and it is right next to pick n pay and many other restaurants 2) My Domain ( some rooms are uct leased) I like the fact the they have a pool and other sports facilities . If you live at the one in Obz , I don’t like how deep it is in Obz. 3) Roscommon ( fully uct leased) I have heard good things about it too . The main disadvantage is that you may have to share a room and apparently the wifi is a bit trash 4) Peak studios I have nothing to say about it because it is only opening this year . At the end of last year it was still under construction so I don’t know much about the place . Wherever you stay , it is important you make do with what you have . Each place offers its own culture so try to find a place you think is best for you ! Hope this helps😊

[@pixelmaus2407]

Hi! Do you happen to know whether they take foreign exchange students, too? I'm German and have to study abroad for one semester, so the first of the options I'm considering is South Africa.

[@KamogeloMaponya]

Hi!! It is always exciting to hear that you would love to visit Cape Town on exchange . Fortunately for you , Campuskey is open to everyone! You can just explain your situation to them and they will do their best to accommodate you .

[@pixelmaus2407]

@@KamogeloMaponya great to hear that, thank you! I'll contact them as soon as the stuff on my university's side is settled.

[@mikarethabile5845]

How did you get into campus key?

[@KamogeloMaponya]

you can apply via their website

[@bluecyan04]

can a student from uwc live at campus key?

[@KamogeloMaponya]

yes you can definitely stay there , I know a few people who do. however , it is quite a distance from uwc so you might need to look into transport. hope that helps 😜

[@faithRikhotso]

Elaborate on the "private accommodation"

[@KamogeloMaponya]

This means that you are not under UCT's residence system , rather you will be directly responsible for your own living arrangements

[@yl_tech27]

How much is the rent

[@KamogeloMaponya]

minimum is R7500

[@TurkiQstalbar7]

Thank you for the great video I have some questions. Are loud sounds preventing you from sleeping? Is the neighbourhood safe? My study trip after a month to UCT

[@KamogeloMaponya]

Hi , the noise is not too bad . Also this only during weekends, during the week most people are quite considerate of each other’s space . You should be fine . I would suggest asking for a room far from the clubhouse . To be honest safety is a concern in general . Most areas around have had recent incidents of robbery however this only happens late in the evening .

[@KamogeloMaponya]

Wish you well at UCT !
