Check if you qualify

The BSc Mathematics programme at Presbyterian University is offered at its Okwahu Campus and sits within the Natural and Applied Sciences field. It is a good fit for students who enjoy solving problems and want to develop strong analytical skills that are widely applicable. This page explains what the programme involves, how competitive entry is, and the kinds of careers you can pursue afterwards.

What mathematics graduates learn and do

Programmes of this kind usually cover pure mathematics, applied mathematics, and statistics. You build skills in logical reasoning, quantitative analysis, and mathematical modelling, which are highly valued in many industries. Most graduates go into fields such as data analysis, actuarial work, finance, teaching, and research, or use their mathematics background as a stepping stone into technology and engineering roles.

How hard it is to get a place

Entry requires either Elective Mathematics or at least C4 in Core Mathematics. The college admits students from Business and General Science backgrounds, so if you have taken one of these combinations, you can apply. Compared to similar programmes at the University of Cape Coast, KNUST, or the University of Ghana, this one is less competitive, meaning that if you meet the subject requirements and your grades are in range, you have a good chance of being admitted. There is no single cut-off aggregate published here, so you should check with the university directly to confirm whether your academic profile qualifies.
