Dear Karen
If your daughter wants to study linguistics she will need to complete a BA degree at a University, majoring in Linguistics (the study of language). This may be found in the Faculty of Humanities, Department if English Language and Literature (http://web.uct.ac.za/depts/english/engstud.htm). We suggest she also explores the many courses offered by the Faculty of Humanities for inspiration about possible careers and other areas of study.
The admission guidelines for UCT for 2011 may be accessed at: http://www.uct.ac.za/apply/criteria/nsc/
We hope this helps you help your daughter explore her options.
Kind regards
Lynn and the Career Planet Team
