Check if you qualifyThe Diploma in Theology at Ghana Baptist University College is an arts and humanities programme offered through the School of Theology and Ministry. It introduces students to the academic study of religion, scripture, and Christian ministry. Because entry is less competitive, it offers a practical route into this field for many SHS leavers.
What theology programmes cover
Programmes of this kind usually introduce students to the Bible, Christian doctrine, church history, and the practice of ministry. You learn to interpret texts carefully, think critically about beliefs, and communicate ideas clearly. Many courses also cover pastoral care and the role of religion in society, giving you a well-rounded foundation for further study or work in faith-based settings.
How hard it is to get a place
This diploma is less competitive than many other university programmes, so your chances of admission are generally good. Entry is not as selective as for degrees in medicine or law, but you still need to meet the basic requirements the university sets. Check your WASSCE results against the published entry criteria to see if you qualify.
