Reduce dropouts.
Improve student success.
Give your institution the tools to match incoming students to programmes that truly suit them — reducing dropout rates, improving satisfaction, and building a stronger academic community.
High dropout rates cost institutions dearly
Tertiary institutions across South Africa face a growing dropout crisis. High first-year attrition leads to lost tuition revenue, reputational damage, lower funding allocations, and reduced student satisfaction scores.
The root cause is often a mismatch between student aptitude and programme choice — a problem that begins before students even enrol. The solution is to use psychometric assessments during the admissions process to match students to programmes that genuinely fit their strengths, personality, and interests.
High dropout rates lead to:
- Significant lost tuition and fee revenue
- Reputational damage affecting future enrolment
- Lower DHET funding allocations
- Increased cost of student support services
- Lower graduate employment rates and accreditation risk
How FundiMatch works for institutions
Integrate into admissions
FundiMatch is easy to integrate into your existing admissions or pre-enrolment process. Students receive a link and complete the assessment online at their convenience.
Students complete assessments
The 45-minute assessment measures personality, learning styles, cognitive ability, values, and vocational strengths. Results are instant.
Review student insights
Your academic and support teams receive detailed reports on each student, enabling informed enrolment decisions and early intervention where needed.
When should institutions use FundiMatch?
FundiMatch is most effective when implemented as part of the pre-enrolment or admissions process — before students commit to a specific programme. This allows your institution to guide students toward the best fit before problems develop.
- During open days and applications
- As part of admissions requirements
- During orientation week for first-years
- As an early-intervention tool for at-risk students
Benefits for your institution
Reduce dropout rates
Match incoming students to programmes that align with their strengths and interests. Students who are well-matched are significantly more likely to complete their studies.
Improve student success
Psychometric insights help students choose programmes suited to their abilities, leading to higher graduation rates and better graduate employment outcomes.
Understand your students
Detailed assessment reports give your academic and support staff deep insight into each student's strengths, weaknesses, and preferred learning styles — enabling personalised support.
Easy integration
FundiMatch is designed to integrate seamlessly into your existing admissions process. Students complete assessments online at their own convenience, and results are available immediately.
Cost-effective intervention
The cost of a psychometric assessment is minimal compared to the revenue loss and reputational damage caused by high dropout rates. The ROI is measurable and significant.
Identify at-risk students early
Spot students whose profile doesn't match their chosen programme before problems develop. Early intervention is dramatically more effective — and less costly — than remediation.
