The Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) has released the approved fee structure for the University of Ghana for the 2025/2026 academic year, aiming to bring clarity and address public concerns over charges.

The details were outlined in a statement on Monday, January 12, signed by Director-General Ahmed Jinapor Abdulai. GTEC confirmed that the Academic Facility User Fee will remain unchanged from the 2024/2025 academic year, ensuring no increase under that component. The decision is intended to reduce the financial burden on students and maintain stability in fee administration.

Among the approved charges are SRC dues of GH₵50, an SRC Development Levy of GH₵150, and a GRASAG Development Levy of GH₵250. Undergraduate students, including first-year students, will also pay a Telecel Broadband Levy of GH₵122.

A one-time 75th Anniversary Levy of GH₵100 has also been approved, applicable only for the 2025/2026 academic year and not in subsequent years.

The Commission emphasized that students should be informed of their rights, including the option to opt out of certain levies where applicable.

“This announcement seeks to resolve issues surrounding the 2025/2026 fee schedule for the University of Ghana. We are counting on the usual cooperation of all stakeholders to implement it effectively,” GTEC stated. The directive is part of broader efforts to enhance transparency and ensure compliance within the tertiary education sector.
