Cape Town – Stellenbosch University student fees will increase by 8% in 2018, the university said on Wednesday.

In a statement, Stellenbosch University said the institution's long-term financial stability and world-class academic qualifications depends on the fee increase.
In addition to across the board 8% fee increase, student accommodation will increase by 9.2% and meal quotas in residences by 8%.
