CAO South Africa : The Leaving Certificate Recheck Process
If you have requested to appeal some of your Leaving Certificate examinations, and if your results are changed on appeal, your position on the Order of Merit list will be altered to reflect your new points score.
If you are deemed entitled to a place on a course based on your upgraded Leaving Certificate results, you will receive an offer – if all of the places for that course have already been allocated, you will receive a deferral of the offer for the following academic year. The decision to offer a place is made by the HEI in question and not the CAO.
