We’ll admit all students who pass the entrance exams – Ghana School of Law
Responding to issues that engulf admissions into the Ghana School of Law every year, its Director of Legal Education Yaw Oppong has allayed fears, assuring that the institution is ready to admit as many students who successfully sail through the process.
He debunked assertions that the school of law’s rigorous admission process is to cut down the number of admissions.
While reiterating his position during an interview on Citi TV, he said, “we are prepared to admit as many students that will qualify. Nobody has an interest in restricting admissions to the Ghana School of Law.”
“Everything is being done to ensure that as many will pass the entrance exam and also otherwise qualify,” he added.
“Who is it that will control numbers? Even though other professions do… that is not what the law school and its authorities have been doing over the years,” Mr Oppong said.
Despite many eyebrows being raised concerning the upcoming entrance exams of the Ghana School of Law, the director reiterated his defence for the process stating that it was fair.
“These rules that you are talking about affect everybody. Those who set the rules, do have children who want to come to the Ghana School of Law? Don’t they have relatives? Nobody gives concessions to anyone.”
As part of plans to expand its campuses after several calls, the Ghana School of Law also operates from the University of Professional Studies, Accra, Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration, the University of Ghana and Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.
Plans are also underway to expand the Main Campus of the Ghana School of Law situated at Makola.
