The extended curriculum programme for BCom studies provides alternative university access to students who have the potential to succeed, but do not meet the minimum admission requirements for the mainstream programme. The purpose of the programme is to integrate additional academic support and skills development with mainstream courses in order to prepare the student for successful completion of the BCom degree.

The programme equips students with in-depth knowledge and skills in the fields of animal production, plant production, financial management, leadership development and strategic management.
