University of Ghana residential fees for 2020/2021 academic year out

The University of Ghana residential fees for 2020/2021 academic year are out as announced by the university. The University of Ghana published the approved Residential Charges for the 2020/2021 academic year. This publication is to update both continuing students and likely freshmen ahead of the reopening of school in 2021 for academic work.

The Management of the University of Ghana (UG) reversed the initial decision to increase its facility user fees for the 2020/2021 academic year by 12%.

After several weeks of agitation from students and the general public and the subsequent directive from the government, a statement from the University of Ghana sighted by GhanaEducation.Org said: “the 2019-2020 fees will therefore be applied for the 2020-2021 academic year.”

This year’s charges are per modular.

The cost of residing in any of the traditional halls in the university ranges between  GHC 267.00 and GHC 2,305.00 for local students (Continuing and Freshmen).
