Coleman Publication has been receiving numerous inquiries from 2024/2025 Colleges of Education applicants who are confused about their admission status.

While many applicants boast strong academic results and have followed the application process diligently, some are still left wondering why they haven’t been admitted.

Well, the answer lies in a strict admission quota system implemented by the Government through the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC).

Unlike traditional universities that admit over a thousand students at once, Colleges of Education operate differently.

The Government, through the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC), sets annual admission quotas for these institutions.

Principals must adhere to these guidelines when selecting applicants for admission.

This means that even if you meet the academic requirements, you may not be admitted simply because the allotted quota for your chosen college may have been filled.

The introduction of this admission quota system is a measure to address the infrastructure issues in most of the colleges.

It’s important to understand that not being admitted most of the time is not a reflection of your capabilities, but rather a consequence of the current infrastructure constraints faced by the colleges.

The government has pledged to construct new hostels at various Colleges of Education, which could potentially ease the admission pressure in the future.
