Changing the Experience of Higher Education

We are big enough to make a difference and small enough to care about all our students.

St Augustine College of South Africa is a small private university located in Linden, Johannesburg, which offers undergraduate and postgraduate degrees. 

On our campus, you have access to safe parking, and between lectures, you can relax with friends under the trees in the beautiful gardens.
