SDD-UBIDS Free Admission: How to Apply for 2021/22 Academic Year

The dream of every final year SHS student is to get his or her dream tertiary institution. Both due to some problems such as financial constraints, people are not able to enroll at their preferred tertiary institution.

In Ghana, almost 98% of the tertiary institutions require you to buy an application form (at a fee) before you can apply. Although the amount might seem to be okay for some people, others might see it as very expensive.

For those in the villages and the rural areas, getting money to pay their children’s final exam fees and preparation classes is difficult. As such, they are not able to get money to buy the admissions form for their wards.

As such, the Simon Diedong Dombo University of Business and Integrated Development Studies (SDD-UBIDS) allows completely free admission for all their applicants.

The Simon Diedong Dombo University of Business and Integrated Development Studies (SDD-UBIDS) was established as a Public Tertiary Institution in 2019. It was established by an Act of Parliament SDD-UBIDS Act 2019 (Act 1001).

It is located in the Upper West Region of Ghana, Wa to be precise. Also, they offer both Undergraduate, and Postgraduate Programmes.
