The North-West University is a newly merged institution from 1 January 2004 onwards with four campuses at Potchefstroom, Mafikeng, Vanderbijlpark and Mankwe. The Potchefstroom Campus (founded in 1869) is the largest, and the head office of the University is situated at this location. With its merged status the North-West University became one of the largest universities in South Africa with approximately 32 000 students (full-time and distance education students).

The universities that merged to form this institution are the Potchefstroom University for Christian Higher Education and the University of North-West (formerly the University of Bophuthatswana). These two campuses form the main hubs of the university, with the Potchefstroom campus catering towards the Afrikaans-orientated academic sphere, and the Mafikeng campus being geared towards meeting the needs of a more diverse academic field.

November 8 game between UNA & UWA
4.10 min. | 2.33 user rating		 After eliminating two of the top three seeds over the Great West Conference Tournament's first two days, the Utah Valley women's basketball team came from 18 points down to upset No. 1 seed and regular season champion North Dakota, 70-62, to become the conference's first-ever tournament champions. In a game that reflected the team's season, a slow offensive start found UVU (10-22) trailing early on before slowly chipping away and finishing strong to win the team's fifth straight game. Trailing by six late, Asumi Nakayama hit a free-throw line jumper and Jenna Johnson hit back-to-back 3-pointers, the second coming with 1:46 to go, to put the Wolverines up 59-57, their first lead of the game. UVU then hit 11-of-12 from the line over the final 1:23 to seal the win. Nakayama finished with 14 points, eight assists, five steals and five rebounds and was named the Tournament MVP after averaging 17.0 points, 7.7 assists, 5.0 rebounds and over three steals per game. Johnson, who scored 17 and was named to the All-Tournament team, helped limit GWC Player of the Year Kayla Bagaason of North Dakota (17-14) to eight points on 3-of-12 shooting. Kaycee Mansfield had her second double-double in two days, scoring 15 points and pulling down 12 rebounds and was also on the All-Tournament Team after averaging 10.0 points and 11.3 rebounds.
