  • 2019 was done on SAMI [not online admissions]. 
      • The reason for unsuccessful applications in 2019 is not available, as the statuses were only expanded in 2020. 
      • Not all applications were necessarily captured by the school onto SAMI.
      • Not all outcomes were necessarily captured (or updated).
  • For earlier years [2019, 2020], there was much less drive on the schools to capture all applications and to work off only the online system, so this information may not be complete
  • Many learners arrived in the January at schools and were directly transferred into CEMIS (especially in the earlier years).  These are not reflected in the numbers below.  [i.e. It is possible that they had an unsuccessful application but were in fact accepted later/transferred in at the school.]
