Is the university of Cape Town a credible post grad medical research place?

We Answered:

I am sure it would be fine.
But if you have the grades and papers.
I would come to the USA for medicine.
Columbia in NY would be one and NYU as well.
They are great schools.
Also in the US, maybe you could get some student loans and defray your costs.
Best wishes.

Anyone studying @ University of Cape Town in South Africa?

We Answered:

I don't know anything about the engineering faculty.

Regarding residences: it depends quite a bit on the particular res. If you are looking for a Stellenbosch-esque drunken student fest, College House should suit you. Smuts is a beautiful Ivy League-alike res on Upper Campus - right in between all the lecture theatres - that's more well-behaved and studious. Marquard is alright (like College House but less rowdy). I can't remember any of the others. I flunked out, see. :D

Is University of Cape Town in South Africa recognised in Europe, Australia and United States?

We Answered:

Certain degrees are and certain degrees are not. I know for your Law degrees to be recognised you have to do a "bridging course" in the UK and USA. I think Australia as well.
