UG moves from STS to MIS registration for freshmen

The University of Ghana has made a significant change to the course registration process for freshmen admitted to the premier university.

Previously, freshmen registered their courses via the STS portal, while continuing students used the MIS Web for course registration.

However, beginning from the 2025/2026 academic year, both freshmen and continuing students will register their courses on the MIS Web.

Below is the detailed course registration process for freshmen:
