Osei, who scored 7As and 1B in his West African Secondary School Certificate Examination (WASSCE), has been admitted to the University of Cape Coast.

To begin a six-year Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery, Francis Osei needs to pay GH¢14,533 as his admission fees.

According to the admission letter, the deadline for payment is November 22, 2024. The fees excludes his accommodation cost.

Francis said he cannot afford the fees because his parents are old and unable to afford to pay for him to further his education.

“I graduated from Anglican Senior High School as one of the best science students. I had an excellent result in WASSCE. My parents are very old and economically disadvantaged.”

Francis Osei said he is hopeful that he would get help to study to be a medical doctor so he can be helpful to society in the near future.
