De Goede Hoop Hostel
De Goede Hoop is a private, Afrikaans language, Christian hostel geared towards male and female students at the University of Pretoria. The hostel was founded in 2017 by the civil rights organization AfriForum. The foundation made headlines because Afrikaans was the only language used there and they did not follow the university's rules that residence halls must be 43% black. In 2017, the hostel housed 66 students, every single one of them white. One black student was accepted for accommodation, but was rejected for financial reasons.Most students at De Goede Hoop are between 19 and 25 years old. It is located on the corner of Reitz and Verdoorn Streets in Sunnyside, Pretoria, 1.8 km from the UP main campus and 3 km from the Groenkloof campus.
