Entry Requirements For Admission Into Any University In Ghana
The term Open University usually refers to a University with an open-door academic policy, i.e. no stringent entry requirements like the traditional Universities. This fundamental open admissions policy makes university study accessible to all. The Admissions policy recognizes this philosophy of making University education open to all, irrespective of age, qualification or experience, except the demonstration of intellectual ability.
The concept seeks to provide opportunities, for workers, working mothers, those bringing up a family or those that do not want to give up their social life and people who otherwise will not have access to University education or those that qualify to enter straight but want to have flexibility in their studies to do so, provided they have an intellectual ability to swim through University education. The idea is to provide a system of open-supported education that provides the flexibility for participants to study effectively.
