What is the admission requirement?
We accept qualified students from around the world.
Successful applicants applying to one of our full first degrees (e.g. BA / BSc / LLB) or Diploma of Higher Education programmes must normally satisfy our general entrance Requirements and specific programme requirements (e.g. Mathematics and English competency).
Those applying to one of our lower awards (e.g. Certificate of Higher Education), must normally hold qualifications at least equivalent to WASSCE standard grade C or above and must satisfy specific programme requirements (e.g. Mathematics and English Language competency).
If you are not automatically eligible then you will be individually considered by the College’s Special Admissions Panel. The Special Admissions Panel will consider qualifications which are not published under the Qualifications for Entrance Schedule, incomplete qualifications (e.g. diplomas / degrees) and substantial relevant work experience. If we cannot accept you with your current qualifications and experience, we will advise you what qualifications you could take in order to become eligible in the future.
The College is committed to ensuring all decisions taken by the Admissions Office are clear, transparent and in-line with set precedent.

What is the progression process?
The college keeps records of internal tests and mock examinations conducted by lecturers for all courses we run. The Academic Affairs officer supervises the collection and recording of all such record in the examination records book. These tests and mock results are used to advise students on a one-to-one basis of their readiness to present themselves for the final examination at each stage of the studies. The Examinations Committee uses these data to evaluate the relationship between internal performances and students’ performances in the final examination.
This has been an important method available to the Academic Affairs for appraising lectures. Students’ records for class attendance, examination and test participations are used as tools to evaluate students’ performance. Information from these records are used to advise prospective candidates to enter fully or partly for examinations or postpone entry to examination.
