Bachelor of Arts (Bouquets with a Business Subject) Full-Fee Paying

This Bachelor of Arts at the University of Ghana blends a bouquet of arts subjects with a core business subject, giving you a broad education with practical business skills. As a full-fee paying option, it offers a different entry route from the regular quota. The programme is competitive, so you will need solid grades to secure a place.

A blend of humanities and business

Programmes of this kind let you combine a selection of arts and social science subjects with a single business subject, such as management, marketing, or finance. The business side builds practical skills in decision-making, communication, and problem-solving, while the humanities side develops critical thinking and a broad cultural awareness. This mix is especially useful for careers that involve working with people and understanding how organisations operate.

How competitive the full-fee route is

This full-fee paying version of the BA is competitive, so you will need strong WASSCE results to be offered a place. For context, the same programme under the regular fee structure at the University of Ghana is highly competitive, while the equivalent programme at the University of Cape Coast is also competitive. The full-fee route may give you an alternative entry point, but it still demands good academic performance.

What you can do after graduation

Most graduates of business-related BA programmes go into management training, marketing, human resources, banking, or entrepreneurship. The combination of arts and business also suits roles in the public sector, non-profits, and media, where communication and analytical skills are valued. Further study can lead to specialisation in areas like finance, international business, or development management.
