Check if you qualify

BSc Midwifery at Presbyterian University's Asante Akyem Campus prepares you for a career in maternal and newborn health. It is a health sciences degree that is less competitive to enter than midwifery programmes at some larger public universities, making it a realistic option for many SHS leavers. The university accepts applications from General Arts, General Science, and Home Economics students.

What midwifery students learn

Midwifery programmes of this kind cover the clinical and theoretical sides of pregnancy, childbirth, and the postnatal period. You develop skills in patient assessment, emergency care, health education, and counselling, alongside the practical midwifery techniques used in hospitals and clinics. Graduates typically work as registered midwives in maternity units, clinics, and community health posts, or move into teaching and public health roles.

Entry and competitiveness

At Presbyterian University, this programme is less competitive than similar degrees at universities like KNUST, UHAS, or UCC. That means you have a stronger chance of getting a place if you meet the basic requirements. The university admits students from General Arts, General Science, and Home Economics backgrounds, and those with SRN or RGN qualifications can apply for placement at Level 200 after an interview.
