Tarehe Muhimu za Maombi (TCU Almanac)
Kwa MARUCo, TCU inahusika na uratibu wa udahili wa Bachelor Degree. Hata kama MARUCo OAS ndiyo sehemu ya kutuma maombi, mwombaji anatakiwa kufuatilia pia kalenda ya TCU kwa selection, confirmation na dirisha la pili.
| Hatua ya Udahili | Tarehe | Maelezo kwa Mwombaji |
| Publication of 2026/2027 Admission Guidebooks | 4 Julai 2026 | Mwombaji wa Bachelor anatumia guidebooks hizi kuthibitisha sifa za programme na njia ya kujiunga. |
| First Application Window | 15 Julai hadi 10 Agosti 2026 | Dirisha la kwanza la kitaifa la kutuma maombi ya Bachelor Degree. |
| First selection/admission announcement | 8 Septemba 2026 | Tarehe ya kutangazwa kwa waliopata admission katika dirisha la kwanza. |
| Second Application Window | 8 Septemba hadi 21 Septemba 2026 | Dirisha la pili kwa waombaji wa Bachelor ambao hawakutuma maombi au wanahitaji nafasi nyingine. |
| Confirmation window for first-window admitted applicants | 8 Septemba hadi 21 Septemba 2026 | Muda wa kuthibitisha chuo kwa waliochaguliwa zaidi ya chuo kimoja. |
| Second selection/admission announcement | 6 Oktoba 2026 | Tarehe ya matokeo ya udahili kwa dirisha la pili. |
| Confirmation window for second-window admitted applicants | 6 Oktoba hadi 19 Oktoba 2026 | Muda wa kuthibitisha admission kwa waliopata nafasi kwenye dirisha la pili. |
| Earliest opening date for Higher Education Institutions | 19 Oktoba 2026 | Tarehe ya mapema zaidi ya vyuo kufunguliwa kwa mwaka wa masomo 2026/2027. |
Ratiba hii inatumika kwa Bachelor Degree. Kwa ngazi nyingine ambazo hazijatangazwa rasmi kwa MARUCo katika vyanzo vilivyohakikiwa, mwombaji asitegemee tarehe hizi mpaka chuo kitangaze intake husika.
Mfumo Rasmi wa Kutuma Maombi
Mfumo rasmi wa kutuma maombi mapya ya MARUCo ni OAS inayopatikana kupitia https://oas.simsmaruco.ac.tz/. Mwombaji anaweza pia kuanzia kwenye tovuti kuu ya chuo kupitia Application Interface, kisha kubofya kiunganishi cha Online Application System.
Ni muhimu kutofautisha OAS ya maombi na MARIS/Student System. OAS hutumika kutuma maombi na kufuatilia admission status, wakati MARIS hutumika zaidi baada ya admission au usajili wa mwanafunzi. Usitumie system ya wanafunzi kuanza maombi mapya.
MARUCo imeweka wazi kuwa application ni bure. Kwa hiyo, usilipe application fee kwa mtu binafsi, wakala au link isiyo rasmi. Malipo ya ada za masomo hufanyika baada ya admission kwa kutumia control number au maelekezo rasmi ya MARUCo/SIMS.
