Another academic year has just commenced and as usual, students of the various universities in the country are breaking banks to pay their fees.
The University of Ghana for this year has partnered with several financial institutions to make fees payment very easy for students who will be entering the university this academic year.
They have even gone extra miles to develop an online payment system that allows students both local and foreign to seamlessly pay their fees online using a debit or credit card, or even MoMo.
According to the management of the university, student fee payment is integral to the registration process. Students must at least pay the minimum required fees before they will be allowed to undertake the Academic and Residential registration.
The minimum percentage before all students can have access to register for the first semester of 2019 – 2020 academic year is 60% for Academic Registration and 50% for Residential Registration. However, International Students are to at least 50% for both Academic and Residential in order to gain access to the registration portal.
Students must take note of the following when making payments:
- Only pay fees at the University of Ghana APPROVED BANKS (listed below).
- All deposits at the bank should be made with a FEE DEPOSIT SLIP.
