2. 2

   What you can study

   The university focuses on science and technology. No individual degree programmes or subject areas are listed beyond that broad focus, so confirm the current programme catalogue on the university website before applying.

3. 3

   Getting in

   International applicants should apply through the university’s official admissions channels and check the entry requirements, document list, and deadlines on the university website. The university does not provide more detailed admissions steps here, so confirm the current process and any country-specific requirements directly with admissions.

4. 4

   What it costs

   The university does not publish a tuition fee range for international students; confirm the current rate with its admissions office. As with most universities, you should also budget for living costs in Kumasi, including accommodation, food, transport, and personal expenses.

5. 5

   Coming from abroad

   The university does not publish a language of instruction here, so confirm that before applying. If you are moving from abroad, also check visa requirements, accommodation options, health insurance, and the documents needed for enrolment with the university and the relevant Ghanaian authorities.

   How it compares

   Ghana has 30 universities in total, and KNUST stands out as a public university with a science-and-technology focus rather than a general profile. For a student choosing within Ghana, that makes it a stronger match if the subject direction matters more than simply picking any public university.
