Now, Let’s find out about UCC admission requirements 2023 right below.

 

University Of Cape Coast Admission Requirements:

Every UCC program has a specific subject you must pass in Wassce to get admission. Not only Wassce, but there are other relevant qualifications you can use to get admission to UCC.

Remember that not only must you pass, but you should also have quality grades in those subjects in order to secure admission at UCC.

For this reason, Educareguide compiles and updates all the courses offered at UCC and their minimum admission requirements for you.

Now relax, because university 0f Cape Coast is one of the few universities in Africa that modernizes its course structure to conform with the modern needs of our current world.

Here is the answer for anyone who wants to secure admission to UCC.

First of all, let’s look at the issue of D7? Undoubtedly, the answer to this question is right below.

 

Is D7 Accepted By UCC – University Of Cape Coast?

First of all, Waec is the official examining body in West Africa. Indeed, Waec administers the Wassce exam in Ghana.

In addition to that, Waec gives senior high school graduates results and certificates to gain admission to universities, schools, and colleges.

After that, the students apply to enter any university of their choice, of which UCC is no exception.

According to Waec Result Interpretation, D7 is just a pass. Moreover, the University Of Cape Coast does not accept D7 for its admission requirement into undergraduate programs in Ghana.

However, very interesting, click here to find out universities in Ghana which accept D7 for admission.

Factually speaking, the minimum grade you must get to gain admission at the University Of Cape Coast is C6. This is because C6 is a credit, whiles D7 is just a pass.

As can be seen, it is obvious that the University Of Cape Coast -UCC, does not accept D7, E8 and F9. Furthermore, let’s look into the detail, the grades you must obtain for UCC to offer you admission into Cape Vars.

Find more information on UCC enrollment and entry qualification undergraduate applicants below.

Now, who is an undergraduate applicant?

Indeed, an undergraduate applicant is a person who is applying to read a first-degree program at the University. Actually, it also captures those who apply to read certificate and diploma courses at the University.

Now, check out the general entry grades to get admission at UCC right below.

 

UCC Courses And Requirements For Wassce Applicants

Furthermore, what grades must you get to qualify for University Of Cape Coast admission?

I must say that the requirements you will find here is UCC Admission Requirements for the 2023 academic year updated.

Nevertheless, it will not differ so much from other universities in Ghana for similar courses. Now, let’s look at the admission requirements.

Therefore, an applicant must obtain from A1 – C6 in Wassce or A – D in SSSCE in all the subjects written to get admission at UCC.

Nevertheless, competition for spaces in various programs of study may let the University modify this requirement a little. For that reason, UCC may not accept grades like C4, C5 and C6 for certain highly competitive programs.

Surprisingly, there are programs that the University does not sometimes accept, even B2 and B3 for admission. Thus some colleges and faculties at the University of Cape Coast accept only A1 for entry to read specific programs.

That is why I constantly implore my readers to work hard to obtain the best grade possible in the Wassce examination. Now, let’s look at the core subjects you should pass to gain admission at UCC first.

 

University Of Cape Coast Courses And Requirements – Core Subjects

Before you can gain admission to UCC, you must obtain quality grades the followings SHS subjects:

English                                  A1-C6

Core Mathematics                      A1-C6

Integrated Science                      A1-C6

Social Studies                           A1-C6

 

Elective Subject Grades You Should Get For UCC Admission

In addition to the above four core subjects, you must make between grades A1 to C6 in all your elective subject to qualify.

Henceforth, it would help get at least a C6 in all elective subjects. Also, you must realize that the maximum aggregate to obtain to qualify for admission is aggregate 24 (sometimes there are considerations).

Surely, Waec computes your aggregate by taking your best three core subjects and your best three elective subjects.

Therefore, the University uses the sum of the grades in these best six subjects to calculate your aggregate.

 

Requirements For Specific Years UCC

It is essential to know that the National Council for Tertiary Education has set the maximum aggregate to 24.

Nevertheless, every University reserves the right to set specific entry requirements from year to year.

That is why the university set cut off points for all her programs every year.

Notably, the specific requirements set is dependent on the performance of applicants and the capacity of the University in that particular year.

For example, University can set the maximum aggregate of 10 for Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting) in a particular year.

Now, what is the cut off point for UCC? Check out the complete list of Programs/Courses and their cut off points from here.

 

UCC Requirements – HND, ABCE, GBCE, GCE, etc.

      Unfortunately, you cannot get admission with D7 in any of your subjects. The reason is that, the National Council for Tertiary Education -NCTE forbids universities in Ghana to admit students with grade D7. Checkout this article:

      Yes, you can. However, you will really struggle to catch up with the business concepts. You will really have to work extra hard on your own. That’s the problem that comes with changing your program at the university level.
