Get a Matie Buddy

Register for the Matie Buddy Programme!

Are you an international exchange student coming to Stellenbosch University in 2020? Feeling worried or anxious about the new environment? Don't be - just sign up for a Matie Buddy! 

A Matie Buddy is a local student who will make contact with you before your arrival in Stellenbosch. They, along with the staff of Stellenbosch University International, will help you settle into life at Stellenbosch University, providing you with all the necessary information. 

It is not mandatory to apply for a Matie Buddy, but we recommend that you do so. Submit your application as soon as possible to get in touch with your buddy before you begin packing! 

Take two minutes and fill in the application form! For more information contact us at acj@sun.ac.za.
