The Actuarial Society of South Africa (ASSA) has officially recognised for exemption purposes the University of Cape Town's degrees in Actuarial Science. ASSA has included in their published regulations certain provisions governing the exemptions which they are prepared to grant from their examinations.

Although recommendations for exemptions will be at the discretion of the external examiners, it is anticipated that a student who graduates with a degree in Actuarial Science from the University of Cape Town and obtains an appropriate standard (currently about 60%) for the appropriate courses will be able to obtain exemptions from all ASSA subjects on the A100, A200, A300, F100 and NA211 level.
