Definately UCT, Stellenbosch, Tukkies (Pretoria) and Wits. UJ does not. I'm not sure about the others but I think most of them would have some sort of course. Otherwise just take maths and statistics - you will still receive some excemptions from the board exams, just not as many as if you study a specific actuarial science degree.
Yes you can but you have to find a university that says in it's entry requirements that they'll accept applicants with a Bsc in zoology or other life sciences.
