Can I Complete My Matric Online?
You have the chance to get a matric certificate by doing an Adult Matric course. You can do this course if you have not written matric or if you did not pass your matric year. The Amended Senior Certificate will give you the same qualification as a Traditional Senior Certificate.

You need the following for the Adult Matric application:
- A matric status that shows you did not pass your matric year or that you did not write matric (an incomplete status)
- A grade 9 certificate (or a grade 9 equivalent)
You can start studying for your Adult Matric when you are 19. You can, however, only write your final matric exams when you are 21 or older.
Can Matric Be Done Online?
If you choose to study Adult Matric via a Distance Learning institution like Bellview, you can get your matric certificate through online studying. The certificate you will get is fully accredited and you will not have any classes to attend.
Studying matric online will allow you to set up a schedule that suits you, virtually submit your assignments, and save money on not having to pay for extra traveling or the use of facilities.
