All transcripts must be sent directly from the school, university, college, or testing authority. Transcripts sent by students will not be accepted as official.

The University of Oregon uses a holistic review process when making our admissions decisions. Though academic performance is important, we also consider strength of curriculum, English proficiency, grade trend, and other factors.

Freshman admission

For admission consideration, students from the Ghanian education system who have completed the Senior Secondary Certificate Exam (SSCE) must have a minimum average of 'C' or Good. Applicants who have completed the West Africa Senior Secondary Certificate Exam (WASSCE) must have a minimum average of 'B3' or Good.

If your secondary school uses a different grading scale, please contact us.

Students from Ghana need to meet the University of Oregon's minimum English proficiency requirements for admission.

If you do not meet the minimum English proficiency requirements, you may apply for conditional admission. Learn more about completing the application process.
