New first-year students on undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in 2024, as each institution reported them. In the yearbook's table the private institutions' rows add up to 145 more than its own total of 21,479; each institution's figure is shown as published.
The yearbook counts students on programmes at National Qualifications Framework levels 5 to 10, access and foundation programmes included; vocational (TVET) programmes and qualifications below level 5 are left out, so an institution's own total can be higher. Figures are headcounts, not full-time equivalents, for the academic year, which usually runs from January to December.

Staff are headcounts by type, as each institution reported them. The yearbook notes that some private institutions give one person several roles, which makes staff hard to classify, so no students-per-staff figure is given.
Examination results, 2024
- Passed153 · 100.0%
Examination results for 2024 as each institution reported them: passed (and moving on to the next year), failed, continuing (master's and doctoral students whose research carries on), absent, and dropped out or registration cancelled. The yearbook warns that progression criteria differ between institutions, so these figures don't compare one institution with another.
What it costs
The yearbook has no fees. Each institution sets its own, and may charge Namibian, SADC and other students different rates — the University of Namibia does — so ask the institution what you would pay.
