Registration for Congregation Ceremonies 

Eligible prospective graduands who intend to attend the congregation ceremony  should register for the Ceremony. Click here to find out what it means to be eligible for graduation and click here to check if you are on the graduation list for this Congregation.  The closing date for registration is  3pm on Friday, 18th August, 2023.

Step1: Online Registration:

Access the graduation list here:  https://sts.ug.edu.gh/services/graduation/search ).  Find Graduand name and click to authenticate log in using student ID Number and PIN (Same as used on the MIS web). Once logged in, Graduands will be able to directly register for Congregation. Kindly contact the appropriate College Academic Office promptly if you qualify for graduation but cannot find your name.

Please check the spelling of your name carefully, as this will be used on the call list for the ceremony. Notify the Academic Officer of your College of any errors promptly.  Errors in student’s records on the MIS Web should be reported as they will reflect on certificate.   

 

In keeping with the formal nature of our congregation ceremony, we would like to remind you that the dress code is formal or traditional. Do not wear any unofficial material on your academic gown. 

Be sure to click “Update Info” once you have completed the registration form.  If not, the profile will not be registered. Only registered Graduands who indicate that they would like to participate in the ceremony will be included in the call list and presented. Print out the proof of the registration for your records. Ensure that you pay the congregation fee promptly to avoid any difficulties.

Step 2: Payment for Registration:

To complete registration, Graduands need to pay a non-refundable fee of GH¢300.00 by the deadline. Graduands should ensure that they have first registered online for the appropriate session before making any payment. Please take note that Graduands who do not register for the Congregation Ceremony will pay the same fee for issuance of their certificates. See the Payment Option page for more information. Please note that, payments may only be done within the period given, after which access will be closed. Late payment is not permitted,

Following the deadline for registration, paid-up graduands will be assigned to the specific sessions where their profile will be featured online and notified in that regard.  This is why Graduands need to ensure that the phone number they provide is accurate and reliable. If the notification is not received, please contact the Academic Officer of your College promptly.

Please note again that registration will be closed after the deadline and payment cannot be accepted.

Step 3: Collection of Certificates:

Graduates will be given their certificates upon return of their gowns. To be allowed to collect your certificate however, you will need to show your UG Student ID card. Although not normally required, ensure that you have your bank payment voucher or other evidence of payment to help with verification if necessary.
