Getting Started


Welcome to the University for Development Studies (UDS) online portal for admissions applications. All prospective students are required to complete an online application before being eligible for admission. Admissions into the University are strictly based on merit. Applicants are therefore advised against engaging services of fraudsters who parrade themselves as contractors for admission. The University takes strong exception to such unscrupulous activities, and would not hesitate prosecuting those involved if found. All enquiries regarding admissions should be made directly to the University using the information on the Contact page. For seamless navigation through the application process, applicants are encouraged to visit the programmes page for information on all programmes and their cut-off aggregates.
