WITS gives full credit for all prior studies undertaken at accredited learning institutions. For example in the Global Business School, credit is granted for previous learning in all stages of the 4-stage GMA program [within which CAT (stage 1); RCA (stage 2); RBA (stage 3); and GMA (stage 4) reside]. No credit for prior learning is given for previous studies for the 2 CMA subjects.

For the MBA program, credit can be obtained for up to 6 subjects (50%) of the required 12 MBA subjects.
