West Coast TVET College Contact Details

For West Coast TVET College, which brands itself West Coast College, the central office in Malmesbury is on 022 482 1143 and info@westcoastcollege.co.za, with a separate complaints mailbox at complaints@westcoastcollege.co.za. Five campuses are spread over roughly two hundred kilometres of the Western Cape coast and interior, from Atlantis in the south to Vredendal in the north, and each has its own number and address below.

Distance, not programme choice, is often the deciding factor here, and the college runs student transport pick-up points because of it.

Student transport pick-up points

The college publishes a pick-up points and times page for student transport, which matters more here than at an urban college. Before you accept a place at a campus, work out the daily journey and check whether a pick-up point serves your town, because the nearest campus by map is not always the one your transport reaches. Vredendal to Malmesbury, for instance, is a long trip and the two campuses do not offer the same programmes.

Applying to West Coast College and NSFAS funding

• Apply to the campus that offers the programme, not the nearest one; there is no application fee
• NSFAS bursary funding is a separate application with its own deadline, and the college cannot approve or release it
• Confirm which of the NC(V) and NATED programmes run at your chosen campus before applying, since they are split across the five

If something is not resolved

• Raise it at the campus first, then with the central office on 022 482 1143
• The college publishes a dedicated complaints mailbox at complaints@westcoastcollege.co.za, which is separate from general enquiries
• Public TVET colleges fall under the Department of Higher Education and Training for unresolved complaints
