EDUCATION - Ghanaian Universities Unable To Meet Demand
The University of Cape Coast and Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology have also rejected large numbers of prospective students because they cannot meet demand.
Another public university, the University of Education, Winneba, rejected 7,873 prospective students for the academic year.
Vice-chancellor Professor Akwasi Asabere-Ameyaw said that out of 13,173 applications received for undergraduate programmes, the university was able to offer admission to only 5,690. Of 663 applications received for postgraduate programmes 273 were offered admission.
The picture was no different for the University of Energy and Natural Resources at Sunyani, where officials said they had to reject 349 prospective students out of 909 applicants. The vice-chancellor, Professor Esi Awuah, said the decision to reject students was due to insufficient space and inadequate lecture theatres and laboratories.
