EducationUSA College Fair 2026 to offer Ghanaian students first-hand guide to U.S university admissions
About 30 accredited colleges and universities from the United States are expected to engage Ghanaian students at an EducationUSA college fair aimed at providing first-hand information on university admissions, tuition, scholarships, student visas and other requirements for studying in the United States.
The EducationUSA College Fair is set to take place in Kumasi and Accra, offering Ghanaian students a unique opportunity to learn about U.S university admissions firsthand. Twenty-six accredited U.S institutions will be present to provide information on admissions, tuition, scholarships, student visas and study opportunities. EducationUSA Advisor Bernice Afotey reassures students that they do not need to have perfect test scores or completed applications before attending.
Instead, the fair aims to address questions about admission requirements, programs, tuition, financial aid, and testing. Participating institutions include prominent universities like Harvard, Tufts, and Wright State, among others. ETS will also be present to answer testing-related queries. It's important to note that U.S admissions are holistic, requiring formal applications and academic records.
Consular officers will provide insights into the student visa process. Tuition and other expenses vary by institution, and students are encouraged to seek financial assistance beyond academic scholarships. The fair is open to undergraduate and graduate applicants, as well as parents, school counselors, and professionals considering master’s or doctoral studies.
The event is scheduled for September 24 in Kumasi and Friday, September 25, in Accra. Registration is recommended for a smoother experience.
