Students are required to complete the Online Residence Registration via SOS. Please visit the CPUT website via
https://www.cput.ac.za/students/life/online-residence-registration for guidance in this regard.
I have not applied for residence; can I still apply?
Application for residence for the 2024 academic year has closed and will not be opened for late application. Please note that it is your responsibility to finalise your accommodation before reporting to the institution in the new year.
Does CPUT have a list of private accommodation available to prospective students?
The list is available via https://www.cput.ac.za/students/life/accommodation/ochap/properties. CPUT has an off-campus Housing Accreditation Program that assists to manage the demand of student accommodation when owned, leased and university controlled accredited residences are full. This makes it safer and easier for students to comfortably enter into agreements with service providers knowing that the university has vetted and checked the quality of services at each property. The second option would be non-accredited private boarding where students source their own accommodation and if funded, must inform the Financial Aid/Bursaries office accordingly. In both cases, the university becomes the bursar, and it is the funded student’s responsibility to ensure that all information is recorded by the relevant office. Self-funded students may also make use of non-university-controlled accommodation. More information is available via https://www.cput.ac.za/students/life/accommodation.

What documents do I need before moving into residence?
Students will need to provide two Proof of Registration’s to their respective residence coordinator; one for the programme that they are registered for in the 2025 academic year and the other for the residence accommodation they have registered for in the 2025 academic year.
What rules apply when living in residence?
