According to the Academic Affairs Directorate, successful candidates can now confirm their admission status via the university’s online portal. The announcement follows months of anticipation after the opening of applications in April 2025.
Admission Lists Published: UG released the lists on December 11–12, 2025, allowing applicants to check their status online.
Registration Start Date Revised: Course registration for first semester will now begin on December 15, 2025, earlier than previously communicated. Students are encouraged to register promptly to secure their preferred courses.
Cut-Off Points Maintained: Despite a decline in overall WASSCE performance in 2025, UG confirmed that its admission cut-off points remain unchanged, ensuring consistency in academic standards.
Support Services Available: The university has set up help desks to assist admitted students with academic and financial queries during registration.
“We encourage students to take advantage of this earlier start to secure their courses and complete registration promptly,” said Lydia Anowa Nyako-Danquah, Director of Academic Affairs.
