The Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) has cautioned prospective students and parents against individuals and online platforms claiming to offer assistance with admissions, hall allocation and room bookings.
In a statement issued on Thursday, September 17, the University said it had observed an increase in social media posts, WhatsApp groups, websites and other online platforms purporting to provide official information or assistance with admissions and accommodation.
KNUST stressed that only officially designated University offices and platforms are authorised to provide guidance on admissions, fees, accommodation and hall bookings.
It urged applicants and parents to be cautious of individuals or groups claiming they can secure admission, guarantee hall accommodation or arrange room bookings on their behalf.
The University specifically warned applicants not to send money, admission credentials, passwords or personal documents to anyone claiming to represent KNUST.
It also reminded applicants that their KNUST Admissions Portal credentials are personal and confidential and should not be shared with third parties.
KNUST advised prospective students to rely on information published on its official website, <Link url="https://knust.edu.gh" title="knust.edu.gh"/>, for updates on admissions and accommodation.
Applicants can also contact the Admissions Office on 024 013 0946, 020 133 2812 or 054 020 6262.
The University’s official WhatsApp contact is 024 013 0946, while its Telegram contact is 050 048 2807.
KNUST said using its designated communication channels would help applicants avoid fraudulent schemes targeting students seeking admission and accommodation.
