The Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) is warning prospective students and their guardians to be on the lookout for a fraudulent syndicate falsely claiming to facilitate admissions.
In a statement issued on Friday, 23 August 2024, management exposed the activities of this group, which uses fake email addresses—such as “knust.inscript@gmail.com” - to solicit payments and personal information from unsuspecting applicants.
According to the school, no individual, agent, or third party has been authorised to manage admissions on behalf of the university.
"We entreat all prospective students and guardians to exercise extreme caution and engage with the KNUST Admission Office exclusively to avoid falling victim to fraud," the statement sighted by JoyNews added.
Management also reminded stakeholders that official undergraduate admission forms are available at all regional post offices nationwide or can be purchased by dialing the short code *885# and following the prompts. Postgraduate admission forms are also available at designated banks.
