    The University of Ghana Online Registration process is very simple and convenient for both newly admitted and continuing students. With just your student ID and assigned email, you can complete all registration tasks online.

    This article serves as a guide for students, providing step-by-step instructions on how to register online for the academic year at UG Legon.

    Remember, you will need your UG Student ID Number and UG 5-digit PIN that was assigned to you on admission to complete the online registration process. You can find this in your admission letter.

    Step 1: Payment Of Fees

    The first thing you need to do when you get your admission letter is to pay the fees to ensure your slot in the university. You need to pay the required minimum fee before you can do your academic and residential registrations.

    In the first semester students must enroll in any of the following University required courses:

    • UGRC 110 Academic Writing I – 3 credits
    • UGRC 150 Critical Thinking and Practical Reasoning – 3 credits
    • (In the second semester another UGRC must be taken)

    2. Humanities and Education Required Courses (HERCs): 3 – 4 credits per semester

    • In the first semester students must enroll in any of their bouquet-based prescribed Humanities and Education Required Courses. In most cases, students can select a HERC to take from 4-6 courses listed on their registration page after login.
    • Courses offered as HERC, including French Language, normally carry three (3) credits per semester. All the other foreign language courses carry only 2 credits per course.
