The prestigious Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) has released the admission list for applicants from Less Endowed Senior High Schools for the 2022/2023 academic year.

Every academic year, the Kumasi-based university gives special preference to students from schools categorised as less endowed due to non-availability of teaching and materials.

Some of these schools are located in hard-to-reach villages where there are little or no social amenities.
