MANCOSA Contact Details
The main MANCOSA contact number for new applications and enquiries is 0861 62 62 672, while returning students use 0861 800 000 and general queries go to 031 300 7200. Prospective students can also email study@mancosa.co.za. MANCOSA stands for Management College of Southern Africa, and its national head office is at 26 Samora Machel Street, Durban 4001. The correct contact route depends on whether you are applying for the first time, returning for another year, dealing with student services, verifying a qualification, making a payment or contacting a specific learning centre.

MANCOSA contact number for applications and enquiries
For a new application or a general enquiry about studying at MANCOSA, use 0861 62 62 672 or study@mancosa.co.za. Prospective students can also use the Enquire Now form at mancosa.co.za/enquiry. Applications are made online through the applicant portal linked as “Apply” on mancosa.co.za, not by post, so there is no admissions postal address for a motivational letter.
MANCOSA separates new applications from returning-student registrations because they are different processes. A first application involves admission and accreditation checks. Returning students who are progressing to year two or three use 0861 800 000. Incomplete-module registration and deferrals go to rereg@mancosa.co.za.
MANCOSA is a private higher education institution offering undergraduate degrees, diplomas and certificates, and postgraduate qualifications up to doctorate level. Its schools cover Business, Education, Information and Digital Technology, and Healthcare, alongside corporate training and online courses. It is part of Honoris United Universities.
MANCOSA student services contact details
Registered students use the Student Services Support Desk at mancosa.co.za/student-services-support-desk/. The page describes this as an online form and does not give it a separate telephone number. For queries and complaints, MANCOSA’s Institutional Rules direct students to a Freshdesk ticket at MANCOSA.freshdesk.com/support/tickets/new or to 0861 800 000.
MANCOSA does not publish a separate exams number. Its Institutional Rules route those queries through the same Freshdesk ticket or 0861 800 000. For records, transcripts and qualification verification, use student.bureau@mancosa.co.za. Qualification-verification requests are directed to the Registrar’s Office rather than to the application or general-enquiry lines.
The MyMancosa student portal is at mymancosa.com and includes a separate Pay Now facility. When contacting MANCOSA about an existing application or student matter, the page advises quoting your student or application number so the query can be matched to the correct record.
MANCOSA email address for enquiries, accounts and complaints
The MANCOSA enquiry email address for prospective students is study@mancosa.co.za. Different mailboxes are used for student records, payments, registration matters, grievances and research ethics, so the enquiry address is not the only email route available.
For self-paying students, the Payment Hub gives cdi@mancosa.co.za. Company-sponsored payments use corporatepayments@mancosa.co.za, while completed debit order forms go to debitorders@mancosa.co.za. MANCOSA does not publish a separate finance or accounts department phone number.
Self-paying students can pay online by card, by EFT to the public beneficiary “MANCOSA” or “MANCOSA ABSA” using their Student Number or Lead ID as reference, by Zapper or by debit order. MANCOSA warns not to pay self-paid fees into company bank accounts, as the fees will not be allocated correctly. Company-sponsored payments use the banking details PDF on the MANCOSA Payment Hub, with the company name and student reference number.
For complaints, MANCOSA’s Institutional Rules say to use a Freshdesk ticket at MANCOSA.freshdesk.com/support/tickets/new or 0861 800 000. A formal grievance is different. After reasonable internal recourse has been exhausted, the prescribed Grievance Form and supporting documents are sent to the Office of the Registrar at grievances@mancosa.co.za. Anonymous complaints against a person will not be considered.

MANCOSA Johannesburg contact details and other learning centres
MANCOSA lists nine learning centres in Durban, Johannesburg, Cape Town, Pretoria (Centurion), Gqeberha, East London, Polokwane, Mbombela and Windhoek. For a matter tied to a particular centre, use that centre’s own number and mailbox rather than the national contact lines.

Qualification verification and Registrar’s Office
Employers, institutions and others seeking to verify a MANCOSA qualification should use student.bureau@mancosa.co.za. The request is directed to the Registrar’s Office. Records, transcripts and qualification-verification requests use this route rather than the new-application, returning-student or general-query numbers.
If a matter has already been discussed by phone, the page recommends keeping a written record. MANCOSA publishes mailboxes for its learning centres, so a centre-specific matter that has stalled on the phone can be restated in writing with the history attached.
What MANCOSA stands for and its accreditation
MANCOSA stands for Management College of Southern Africa. Its legal name is MANCOSA (Proprietary) Limited, trading as Management College of Southern Africa. It is a private higher education institution rather than a public university and is registered with the Department of Higher Education and Training as a Private Higher Education Institution under registration number 2000/HE07/003.
MANCOSA was founded in 1995 and has been a founding member of Honoris United Universities since 2017. MANCOSA says it has received accreditation for all its academic programmes from the Council on Higher Education (HEQC), which it first obtained in 2002.
Alternative access and Recognition of Prior Learning
MANCOSA’s Institutional Rules provide an alternative access route for mature-age applicants or through Recognition of Prior Learning for applicants who do not meet the minimum entry requirements. RPL applications need all qualifications, short-course certificates, a detailed dated CV and a personal motivation letter of at least 150 words.
A Higher Certificate programme requires an NSC with a Higher Certificate, Diploma or Bachelor’s pass. No programme called a bridging course was found on MANCOSA’s site.
Graduation and research ethics contacts
MANCOSA does not publish a graduation-specific email address or number on its contact page, graduation page or Institutional Rules. Graduation enquiries therefore use a Freshdesk ticket or 0861 800 000. Students owing fees are not invited to the physical ceremony and receive certificates only once fees are paid.
Research ethics clearance goes to the MANCOSA Human Research Ethics Committee (M-HREC), registered with the NHREC as REC-012623-060. Its contact is mhrecadmin@mancosa.co.za, extension 7587, Research Directorate, Level 4 Samora House, Samora Machel Street, Durban.
