The University of Cape Coast (UCC) has announced an exchange programme opportunity open to eligible undergraduate students. The programme is exclusively available to Level 200 and Level 300 students across the university. Interested students have until Friday, October 2, 2026, to submit their applications. The university shared the announcement on its official Facebook page on September 27, 2026.
According to the university, interested applicants are directed to visit the Office of International Relations portal at international.ucc.edu.gh/ucc-students to learn more and complete their applications. Students with questions about the programme can also reach out directly to the Office of International Relations via email at [email protected]. The university encourages students to act promptly as the deadline is just days away from the announcement.
The exchange programme involves partner institutions in 14 countries, although the specific countries and institutions were not specified. UCC encouraged students to visit the application portal and contact the Office of International Relations as soon as possible to avoid missing the October 2 cut-off. Undergraduate students at Level 200 and Level 300 who meet the eligibility criteria are advised to apply.
The University of Cape Coast recently published the cut-off points for over 110 programmes on its official admissions portal. This move came shortly after results for candidates who sat the 2026 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) were released. The cut-off figures cover two categories of applicants: those who were awaiting results from the 2024 sitting, and those applying through the Post-WASSCE 2025 route.
The announcement of the exchange programme and the cut-off points are part of UCC's efforts to provide opportunities for its students. In 2025, Ruth Sekyi, the author of the article, completed the ECOWAS, GIZ, and MFWA Information Integrity training. Her media career began at Radio GIJ (campus radio), followed by Prime News Ghana.
Students who are interested in the exchange programme can find more information on the UCC website. The university's Office of International Relations is available to provide further information and answer questions.
The exchange programme is a great opportunity for UCC students to gain international experience and enhance their academic qualifications. Eligible students are encouraged to apply before the deadline.
