  ABOUT PRESIDENTIAL CHARTER A charter signifies that a university has continuously met excellent educational standards and regulations, and so no longer requires direct supervision. Such institutions will become independent degree-awarding universities once a presidential charter is granted.

The Presidential Charter recognizes the features, strengths, and influence of universities on higher education in Ghana and abroad.   PRESIDENTIAL CHARTER REQUIREMENTS/STEPS In Ghana, every newl...
