Are TVET Colleges Still Open for 2026 Late Applications?

Yes, many TVET Colleges open late applications between November, December, and early January. Some colleges may still accept walk-ins if they have space. Each college has its own dates, so students must check often.

Late applications depend on how many spaces are left in each course. If a course is full, the college will close it. If there is space, you can still apply.
