UNIVERSITY OF CAPE COAST CUT-OFF POINTS AND ITS RELATED COURSES.
UNIVERSITY OF CAPE COAST
According to https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com, a cut-off point is the limit beyond which no further action is permitted or possible. The secondary and tertiary education is noted for this.
The tertiary institutions use this system to grade students into the various programmes of study. The grading system which is often accepted by most universities is that of the West Africa Education Council which is;
| WAEC GRADING SYSTEM | INTERPRETATION |
| A1 | Excellent |
| B2 | Very Good |
| B3 | Good |
| C4 | Credit |
| C5 | Credit |
| C6 | Credit |
| D7 | Pass |
| E8 | Weak Pass |
| F9 | Fail |
Cut-off points differ from university to university.
For instance, a grade 10 might earn you an opportunity to study law in Kwame Nkrumah University Of Science And Technology(KNUST) but University of Ghana(UG) will not accept you.
Before a student is offered admission into the university, she must, first of all, meet the minimum admission requirements for a specific programme of choice.
Admission requirements for science-related courses are quite different from those of non-science related courses.
For instance, an applicant for admission to a degree programme must have at least credits (A1 – C6 in WASSCE and A – D in SSSCE) in English, Core Mathematics and Integrated Science (for Science related programmes) or Social Studies (for non-Science related programmes) and three elective subjects in Science for applicants applying to Science or Agriculture related disciplines or three elective subjects in General Arts/Business for applicants applying to non-Science related disciplines, with the total aggregate not exceeding 24.
In addition, Science applicants should have at least a grade C6 in WASSCE or D in SSSCE in Social Studies/Life Skills and non-Science applicants should also have at least a grade C6 in WASSCE or D in SSSCE in Integrated Science/Core Science.
