Check your SSSCE or GBCE result

Count the subjects in which you earned a grade from A to D. You need six, and both English and Mathematics must be among them. If either subject is missing, you do not meet the published requirement.

Use the test for the certificate you actually hold. ICAG describes SSSCE and GBCE results as six A-to-D passes; its separate WASSCE requirement uses the word credits.

Example

If English, Mathematics and four other subjects are all graded A to D, you meet the published requirement. Six A-to-D passes without English or without Mathematics are not enough.

This is only the academic entry requirement. It does not give you paper exemptions, and ICAG still has to approve your application.
