Cut-off points represent the minimum academic qualifications required for admission into a specific program at UPSA. These points are primarily based on results from:

  1. West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE)
  2. Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination (SSSCE)
  3. Equivalent international qualifications.

Programs with higher demand often have more stringent cut-off points compared to less competitive courses.
