Over 6000 KNUST Students Defer Courses For Non Payment Of Fees

Over 6000 students, representing about 8 per cent of the about 85,000 student population of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) have had to defer their courses in line with university regulations for non payment of school fees.

The Academic Board of the KNUST deferred the programmes of the students for non payment of academic user fees.

Early this year, the university extended the payment date from March 21, 2022 to April 11, 2022 to allow the students to honour their obligation.

However, as of last week when mid-semester examinations had started, the over 6000 students had reneged on their promises following an earlier plea.
