Are there any Nigerians schooling at Ghana. How good is their education system.

How pricey/cheap is their tuition fee?

Will it take less years to complete a course as compared to Nigerian Universities?. E.g A course under faculty of education generally takes 4 years in Nigeria. Will it take 3 years at Ghana.?

And what are the scholarship opportunities available for Undergraduates?

..

from the little I know, Ghanaian educational system is far better than that of Nigeria, Infact you don't even need the comparison.
Their government invest much allocation to the education sector.
but, as a a common Nigerian, you can't afford their tuition fees in their public universities talk more of their private institutions eg AIT (Accra Institute of Technology) pays more than $2500 per session .
Scholarship opportunities do exist but they consider their citizens first before international students.
Also they have lesser duration of study as compared to Nigeria eg Faculty of engineering at KNUST(Kwame Nkrumah University of science and Technology) runs a four year degree programme, but in Nigeria, its five years. This is also applicable to other facilities

I appreciate your comment. The $2,500, is it for three semesters or just one?? And are there any scholarship programmes you know which are available now? I'd love to try them out. And see how God helps

Government universities: Ghana has better public universities than Nigeria. E.g University of Ghana(Ghana's best) is ranked higher than Uni of Ibadan(Nigeria's best)

Private universities: Nigerian private universities are better than the Ghanian ones.

Note: That UG is better ranked than UI is not really a proof of intellectual superiority but evidence of serious underfunding by Nigeria's FG. UG presumably receives huge funding from Ghana as a flagship university while Nigeria for political reasons fund the likes of ABU higher than UI.

It depends on the university. If you want to school in Ghana I can only advise you to go to university of Ghana, KNUST, RMU, UMAT, UDS and UCC. Aside those mentioned don't bother wasting your time and your money.

Thanks for the advice. I want to study Biology under faculty of education so as to become a lecturer in the future. Will it take me 3 years to study that at Ghana? And what is the tuition fee for university of Ghana?

Biology. You are better off studying that in Nigeria. Schooling in Ghana is very expensive for a foreign student and biology takes 4 years to study.

You don't need to study biology under faculty of education to become a lecturer. You can study it under faculty if biological sciences and still be a lecturer in that faculty/college.

So they charge Nigerians as international students Of what use is the ECOWAS organization then.

Ghana education system is a top notch when compared to her Nigeria counterpart. although not yet excellent to be term as the best. much need to be done.

private universities in Ghana are regulated by public universities. per the law, a private university must be under a public university for a period of 10 years and must seek Parliament approval before she can award her own degree. this mean you will be graduating with a degree awarded by public university though you attend private uni. so the difference are not much.

you can study in Ghana as Low as hundred thousand naira and as high as 2 million naira depending on the school you choose. public school are likely to be very expensive including some private uni that has a strong link with foreign uni. if finance is your constraint, I will advice you to choose local affiliated private uni.

Ghana and Nigeria both practise British model of education. the duration of a non professional degree is four years while professional degree ranges from five to six years. remember your first year is non score. that is it has little to do with your remaining three years cumulative point. i doubt any private uni offer biological education as a degree except public ones. the private uni tend to major on modern discipline. so the the public uni is your best option.

I will recommend university of education winneba and university of cape coast to you if you have the ability.since you want to major in biological education. they are the two main teacher training university in Ghana .

scholarship option is very slim except you are extra ordinary student.

4 Years. You mean at Ghana or here in Nigeria?

In Ghana biology is 4 years and aside the humongous fees you will pay, the standard of living in Ghana is very high. Everything is expensive even water.

University of Cape Coast. What's the average tuition fee per year?

*sad* I really wish I could spend less time studying Biology education. Are there any other neighbouring countries you know I could get my Bsc for 3 years. Yet has an affordable tuition fee?

What's wrong with Nigeria?

Nothing is. Just want to spend 3 years instead of 4 years getting a Bsc certificate

For your course I will advise you to school in Nigeria. There's no use wasting all that money outside. Don't even look to Benin republic as most universities there are below standards.

do you think Biology education is a nice course?

It depends on what you want to do in the long run but i will never advise anyone to study a course like that.

The prospects when you are done. With a degree in biology education what do you plan to do when you graduate.

I will advised Nigerians to stay back home , because I don't see any difference of going to Ghana to study, apart from strike, one or to glitches in infrastructures ghana isn't better, have you ever ask yourself how many people have ghana produced in terms of education in the international front line without being bias, it tells you Nigeria need to put one two things in place.

If you're interested in schooling in any university outside Nigeria, it's required for you to check the following:
Facuity of Academia
staff to students ratio
Research publications by the university
Infrastructure of the university
Ranking and many more. When your check all these things thenow you will ask yourself whether it's wise to school in Ghana or not.

Private universities in Ghana is below the belt don't waste your time and money private universities in Nigeria are hundred miles away ahead of them , some private universities in nigeria are even better in term infrastructures and lecturer's, maybe experience may play one or two roles .

Public universities in Ghana are freaking expensive, such amount can be used to study abroad , I don't see why you should waste your time and money.
Imagine a public university in Ghana where Ghanaians pay 1700 cedis compared to foreigners that pay $10,000 or more, it shows their quality is below standard unlike in Europe where it a little different compared to foreigners.
From research I did, I know of many Nigerians who were bred and raised by Nigeria universities , they got their BSC in Nigeria, upon their arrival for masters degree in abroad have invent, contributed immersly in science and technology which are profound in everyday use compare to the Ghanaian counter part.

I would suggest better to Go and Study in India. It is much cheaper, quality education, global reach, one of the fastest growing economy, scholarship opportunities, friendly environment etc. Recently Samsung has started its worlds largest mobile manufacturing plant in India and many more stories, so be a part of growing economy, nigeria India trade is increasing day by day, there are many Indian companies in Nigeria which will give you good job opportunities if you have studied in India. So I think India can be a good choice to Study Abroad destinations for Nigerians. So I would welcome all Nigerians to come and study in India and be a part of global economy. visit www.studyinindia.io for information on Indian Universities and courses.

Government universities: Ghana has better public universities than Nigeria. E.g University of Ghana(Ghana's best) is ranked higher than Uni of Ibadan(Nigeria's best)

Private universities: Nigerian private universities are better than the Ghanian ones.

Note: That UG is better ranked than UI is not really a proof of intellectual superiority but evidence of serious underfunding by Nigeria's FG. UG presumably receives huge funding from Ghana as a flagship university while Nigeria for political reasons fund the likes of ABU higher than UI.

Right now university of Ibadan is ranked above university of Ghana. Far higher.
