The Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology(KNUST) announced on April 11, 2022, that it has opened the sale of application forms to prospective undergraduate students.

KNUST Admissions Cut Off Points for 2022/2023 Academic Year.

The acquisition of application forms is not enough unless one has taken a close look at the KNUST’s admissions cut-off points for 2022/2023.

It is common knowledge that admission spots at the Kumasi-based institution are quite difficult when compared to other institutions. A hasty selection of academic programs may result in the loss of desired programs.

The cut-off points are used to help people choose their preferred programs based on their capacity to achieve the aggregate.
The system confirms the adage “cut your coat to fit your size.”
As a result, the system pushes you to choose programs in which you believe you will succeed.

Here at GhnewsbanQ.com, we want to be with you every step of the way; from the application process to the time of admission. This is why we have compiled the list of all programmes the University’s six colleges;

College of Agriculture and Natural Resources

and College of Health Sciences offers and their respective cut-off points.
