The Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) has ordered the University of Development Studies (UDS) to immediately stop delivering its accredited evening LLB programme as a weekend programme and revert it to its approved evening mode, according to a letter dated October 5, 2026, addressed to the Vice-Chancellor of UDS in Tamale.
GTEC has expressed serious concern over the university's current delivery of the Bachelor of Laws (LLB) programme as a weekend programme, contrary to its approval. The Commission has also noted that students admitted to the approved evening programme are being required to switch to the weekend mode. GTEC emphasizes that the accreditation was granted based on specific conditions, including the approved mode of delivery, and any unilateral alteration without prior approval constitutes regulatory non-compliance.
The Commission warns that failure to comply within seven days may result in measures such as suspension or withdrawal of accreditation, cessation of further student admissions, and other regulatory actions. GTEC urges the university to treat this matter with urgency and ensure full compliance with the directive within the given timeframe.
