Is the American High School Diploma accepted in South Africa as a matric certificate?
- Yes, definitely!
- The advanced American High School Diploma (also called college prep or honours diploma) is equivalent to the Cambridge A levels matric or SA gr. 13.
- It is also recognized by the South African matriculation board and USAF for university bound students. To study at a South African university, you will need matric exemption. If you did not follow the traditional South African formal secondary school route (CAPS & IEB), you will have to apply for matric exemption from USAf (same as Cambridge).
