KNUST to hold virtual matriculation ceremony for 2020/2021 fresh students

Students admitted into the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology this year will be matriculated via an online ceremony.

The decision to hold a virtual ceremony is a result of the increasing cases of COVID-19 in the country.

The ceremony has been scheduled for Tuesday, February 9, 2021.

KNUST is not the only tertiary institution that has resolved to hold a virtual matriculation ceremony.

Earlier last week, the University of Ghana announced plans to matriculate newly admitted students online.
