The Nursing and Midwifery Council of Ghana has withdrawn the professional accreditation of Ghana Christian University College, located at Amrahia on the Dodowa road. This withdrawal is effective September 2025.
In a public notice issued on October 21, 2025, the Council explained that the withdrawal followed the discovery of multiple regulatory breaches, including the operation of unapproved campuses at Nalerigu in the North East Region and Sekondi in the Western Region, as well as running a Bachelor of Science in Nursing programme online, which violates Council regulations.
The Council’s letter dated September 26, 2025, directed the University College to cease all advertising and admission of new students and to develop a teach-out plan for those already enrolled before September 2025.
However, the Council revealed that credible reports indicated the institution had continued admitting new students, contrary to its explicit directive.
Consequently, the Council stated that Ghana Christian University College is no longer accredited to offer any Professional Nursing or Midwifery programmes in Ghana. The school is therefore barred from advertising, admitting, or enrolling students under the guise of accreditation.
The Council further cautioned that any student admitted after the revocation will not be recognised for purposes such as; indexing as a student, registration for licensing examinations, and licensing as a nurse or midwife.
The statement urged prospective students, parents, and guardians to verify the accreditation status of institutions before seeking admission, stressing that studying in unaccredited institutions poses serious risks, including loss of time, financial resources, and career opportunities.
