Students are the total the report prints for each institution for each academic year, as the institution reported it. For 2022/23 the institutions' totals, added up by type of institution, match the report's own summary (except that the private colleges and institutes come to 1 student more); earlier years have no summary to check them against, and in a few places an institution's printed total isn't the sum of its programme rows. “—” means the report prints no figure for that year — not zero.

Graduates are the totals the report prints for each institution, by the year students completed. The 2022 column is what the report calls its 2023 graduates: students who passed their final examinations in the last semester of 2021/22 and graduated in 2022/23. Added up by type of institution it matches the report's own table, except that the private colleges and institutes come to 2 graduates more and the health sciences institutes and nursing schools come to 32 graduates fewer. A blank cell in the report is shown as “—”, never as zero.

Institute of Health Sciences - Lobatse · registration number ETP0182 · Public

Accreditation date 2 May 2019, expiry date 1 May 2029, as listed on BQA's register on 20 October 2026.

The Botswana Qualifications Authority (BQA) registers and accredits education and training providers; its register gives each one an accreditation date and an expiry date. The dates are shown as listed on the day we read the register — check BQA for the current position. Being on the register says nothing about any particular programme, which BQA accredits separately.

What it costs

The report has no fees. Batswana who meet the Government's entry threshold (36 points at BGCSE or its equivalent, the report says) can be sponsored through the Department of Tertiary Education Financing; self-sponsored and international students apply to, and pay, each institution directly — ask the institution what you would pay.
