Guidelines for SAQA Verification Fee Payment

Upon receipt of the verification email from the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA) requiring you to pay the verification fee to the University of Ghana, please follow these steps:

  1. Verify Email Copy:
    • Ensure that the University of Ghana (academicverification@ug.edu.gh) is copied in the email trail from SAQA.
      • If the University of Ghana is copied, proceed to make the payment and send the proof of payment in a reply to all recipients.
      • If the University of Ghana is not copied, make the payment and forward the SAQA verification email, along with the proof of payment, to academicverification@ug.edu.gh with SAQA in copy. This will enable the University of Ghana to reach out to SAQA for your documents, expediting the verification process.

Please note that your verification cannot be processed until the University of Ghana receives your documents from SAQA.

The fee for SAQA verifications is the equivalent of 10 USD. Payment can be made at the Cash Office or online here.

For any further inquiries, please contact academicverification@ug.edu.gh.
