University of Ghana named Ghana's most beautiful tertiary institution – Report

In West Africa, it is ranked second, behind the Gaston Berger University in Senegal but ranked fifth in Africa.

Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, University of Cape Coast, University for Development Studies, and the University of Education, Winneba, were all absent in this ranking of top ten tertiary institutions that provides its students with a serene environment for members of its community.

“Its architecture is a real strongpoint, the beaming white walls and red roofs pair well with the plants, trees and flowers growing on campus. The Balme Library is the nucleus of the campus and is regarded as one of the best libraries in West Africa, complete with a freshwater pond."

The university has been featured as a backdrop in many films and TV programmes, including the Ghanaian hit series Sun City,” the ranking said concerning the University of Ghana.
