Non-registered Graduands may also pay at the cash office after a given date to pick up their certificates.

As usual, certificates can be picked up from the respective Schools within two weeks after the congregation ceremony, following which collection can be undertaken from the Students Services and Records Unit in Room D8 of the Academic Affairs Directorate. This should be done in person.

Every year’s cohort of graduated students has up to exactly six (6) months following the date of their congregation ceremony to collect their Academic Certificates from the Student's Record Unit at no additional charge. After a period of six months, graduates will be required to pay a penalty equivalent to the prevailing University of Ghana graduation fee in addition, to the collection.

Please take note that the Academic Certificate is irreplaceable. Make sure you make copies and keep the original in a safe place.
