On Thursday, 19th December, 2024, President Akufo-Addo presented Presidential Charters to fourteen University Colleges to mark yet another transformative milestone in the history of the nation’s tertiary education landscape and affirm the vision and perseverance that these institutions have demonstrated over the years as further testament to government’s unwavering commitment to academic excellence, innovation, and nation building.
The grant of a Presidential Charter represents the highest recognition that a tertiary institution in Ghana can achieve. It is the result of a rigorous process, as each university college must meet stringent criteria established by the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission, GTEC, comprising excellence in governance, quality assurance, academic delivery, research, and community engagement.
The University Colleges includes, National Defence College, KAAF University College, Heritage Christian University College, Ensign Global College, University College of Gold Coast, Knutsford University College, Thrivus Institute for Biomedical Sciences and Technology and Nobel International Business School.
The rest are, Entrance University College of Health Sciences, Accra Metropolitan University College, African University College of Communications, Garden City University College, Family Health University College and Academic City University College.
