Before you pay Varsity College

  • Confirm the registration. Verify Varsity College (2007/HE07/002) on the official DHET register. If it is not there, stop.
  • Check the exact programme. Registration of the college is not enough - confirm the specific programme is CHE accredited and on the NQF with SAQA.
  • Never pay into a personal account. A real college uses a business bank account in the college name. Payment into a personal account is a scam.
  • Be wary of pressure and guarantees. Guaranteed jobs, pay today or lose your place, and qualifications that sound far too quick are warning signs. Verify before paying.
AskSmarty never takes payment. We help you verify Varsity College and reach its official site. Registration and accreditation can change - always confirm on the official DHET, CHE and SAQA channels before you pay.
