The University of Ghana (UG) has released its undergraduate admissions for the 2026/2027 academic year, giving applicants the opportunity to find out whether they have secured admission to the university.
Applicants who applied for undergraduate programmes are encouraged to check their admission status through the university’s official admissions system rather than relying on third parties.
The university releases admissions after completing application processing for the new academic year.
How to check UG admission status for 2026/2027
Applicants can check their admission status online through the University of Ghana’s admissions system.
To check your status:
- Visit the official University of Ghana admissions portal.
- Select the option to check your admission status.
- Enter the required applicant information.
- Submit the details to search for your admission record.
- If you have been admitted, carefully review the programme and admission information displayed.
- Download and print your provisional admission letter where applicable.
The university’s admissions information indicates that applicants can check their status using their surname or application serial number through the admission status checker.
What successful applicants should do
Applicants who have been offered admission should not stop after seeing their admission status.
They should carefully read the admission letter and follow the instructions provided by the University of Ghana regarding fees, registration, accommodation, orientation and other requirements.
UG advises successful applicants to continue checking official university announcements for information about the next stages of the admission process.
Students should also make sure that the personal details and programme information on their admission documents are correct.
UG warns applicants about admission scams
The university has also issued a warning to applicants following the release of the admissions.
Applicants have been cautioned against people who claim they can influence the admission process or secure admission in exchange for money, gifts or favours.
UG says applicants should not pay individuals who promise to secure admission or accommodation for them.
Anyone who receives such a request should treat it as a potential scam and use the university’s official channels for verification and assistance.
UG opens Admissions Assistance Desk
The University of Ghana has established an Admissions Assistance Desk to support applicants with admission-related enquiries.
The desk is located at the Sports and Wellness Directorate and is scheduled to operate from September 17 to October 2, 2026.
The announced opening hours are:
- Monday to Friday: 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
- Saturday: 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Applicants who need clarification can therefore seek assistance through the designated university channels rather than relying on unofficial intermediaries.
What if your admission status is not available?
Applicants should not immediately assume that they have been unsuccessful simply because they cannot find their admission information.
They should first ensure that the details they entered are correct and check the official admissions portal again.
For enquiries that cannot be resolved online, applicants can contact the University of Ghana through its official admissions and academic affairs channels.
Important warning to applicants
The University of Ghana has specifically warned applicants about fraudulent admission offers.
Do not give money to someone who claims to have an inside connection at UG and can “help” you obtain admission.
Admission-related payments should only be made through the university’s approved channels.
Applicants should also be careful when sharing their application credentials, PINs and other personal information.
Final advice for UG applicants
The release of the 2026/2027 undergraduate admissions marks an important stage for prospective students hoping to begin their university education at the University of Ghana.
Applicants are encouraged to check their status directly, read their admission letters carefully and follow the university’s instructions for the next stage of the process.
NoticeboardGH will continue to provide updates on UG admissions, registration, fees, accommodation and other important information for students preparing to enter the university.
