CityVarsity

#Articles, #Student

Established in 1996 in Cape Town, CityVarsity has rapidly cemented itself as the go-to media and creative arts school in South Africa. Simultaneously, the demand for quality private tertiary media education facilitated us opening the doors to our Johannesburg campus in 2007.

CityVarsity specialises in higher education qualifications and offers a range of degrees diploma and certificate qualifications in the disciplines of Film, Television and Media Arts. In addition, we offer a wide selection of professional short courses aimed at individuals wanting to improve their skills for employment in the Film, Television and Media Arts industries.

Our students’ lifestyles are enriched by the close proximity to media and creative industries surrounding these campuses. The increasing numbers of international students at both of our campuses bear increasing testimony to the positive reputation we continue to spread at a global level. CityVarsity provides school leavers with the opportunity to develop and craft their skills-sets in media and creative sectors. This dynamic environment empowers students to express their creativity and develop their unique talents, while acquiring the technical ability that they will need to access the job market and build professional career paths.

Over the years, CityVarsity’s dominance at national awards ceremonies across various disciplines have demonstrated the distinctive edge that our students possess. Our academic staff are encouraged to freelance within their disciplines. This highly successful strategy results in a perpetual awareness of the trends, needs and challenges within each industry from a top-down approach. To further ensure the future success of our students, we send our students to annual industry indabas. The indabas ensure a mid to long-term guidance system for syllabus structure, content and direction. These are just two ways in which our students are constantly in touch with the pulse of their chosen profession. Our students’ interaction with peers from other departments produces vital networking skills and opportunities which have led to many of them forming successful independent production companies after their studies.

All our curricula are registered with the South African Qualifications Authority while the qualifications are accredited by the Council on Higher Education (CHE). In addition to this, CityVarsity is registered with the Department of Education (DOE).
