Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) has released guidelines for the 2024/2025 undergraduate admissions.
The university's admissions portal is open, allowing applicants to log in and verify their application details, including their names, dates of birth, and examination records such as index numbers, exam type, and year. Applicants are also encouraged to review their programme choices, referencing the 2023/2024 cut-off points to guide realistic decisions.
The general admission requirements mandate credit passes in English Language, Mathematics, and Integrated Science for WASSCE/SSSCE applicants, alongside three elective subject passes relevant to their chosen programmes. Applicants with alternative qualifications, including GCE ‘A’ Levels, IB, and other international certificates, must meet equivalent criteria.
Prospective applicants may still purchase e-vouchers from Ghana Post Offices, with the admission portal set to close at midnight on Friday, January 3, 2025.
For specific programmes, entry requirements vary. For instance, the College of Engineering mandates credit passes in Physics, Mathematics, and Chemistry for WASSCE/SSSCE applicants. Similar standards apply across other colleges, including Health Sciences, Humanities, and Social Sciences. Mature and diploma applicants are advised to consult detailed programme requirements to ensure eligibility.
Applicants seeking further information on programme-specific requirements and application procedures are encouraged to visit KNUST’s official admissions portal or contact the Academic Affairs Division.
