How do I indicate that I am awaiting my grades on the online form? When filling out the online application, you must enter your correct WASSCE Index Number. In the section designated for entering your subject grades, you will select the option “Awaiting Results” for every subject that does not yet have a final mark.
Are there any restrictions on programme choices for awaiting results applicants? You can apply for any undergraduate programme. However, certain competitive programmes, particularly those within the College of Health Sciences (like Medicine or Nursing), are often restricted to being your First Choice only. Be sure to check the specific guidelines for your desired courses.
What is the final deadline for the awaiting results application? The application portal for awaiting results applicants is generally kept open until the official WASSCE results are released or for a short period immediately after their release. It is crucial to submit your application well before the official closing date for the academic year.
Can I edit my application after I have submitted it online? Yes, the University of Ghana typically allows applicants to log back into the portal to review or make necessary minor changes to their submitted form, particularly for a few days following the release of the WASSCE results.
Can I change my choice of programme (e.g., from Arts to Science) after submitting the form? Changes to your chosen programme are usually highly restricted or not permitted once the application is submitted. You should be certain of your programme choices before final submission.
How will the University of Ghana obtain my WASSCE results? The University is mandated to access and verify your final results directly from the West African Examination Council (WAEC) using the Index Number and other examination details you provided in your application.
Do I need to manually upload my result slip after the results are out? While the verification is mostly done directly with WAEC, the University may still notify applicants of a specific procedure to upload a copy of their result slip to the portal. Always follow the official instructions released by the UG Admissions Office after the WASSCE results are published.
How will I be informed of my admission status? Successful applicants are usually notified via SMS and/or the email address provided on the application form. You can also actively check your admission status anytime by logging back into the online portal using your e-voucher’s Serial Number and PIN.
