Management of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology has officially opened its accommodation portal for booking.
By this development, freshers can log in and reserve a bed space by following the steps outlined below;
If you are looking for a comprehensive guide on how to apply for KNUST accommodation or looking for accommodation in any of the traditional halls, you are at the right place.
The Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology has six traditional halls, i.e, the University Hall, commonly known as Katanga, Unity Hall, also known as Conti, Republic Hall, Queens Hall, Independence Hall, and Africa Hall.
Until 2019, KNUST had three unisex halls, i.e, Republic Hall, Independence Hall and Queens Hall. The University Hall ( Katanga), Unity Hall (Conti) were all-male halls and Africa Hall was an all-female hall.
Aside the six traditional halls, KNUST also boasts of other hostels in and around the university campus. Brunei, Hall 7, The SRC Hostel, GRASSAG Hostel and the MasterCard Hostel are other hostels located on campus.
Students initially were automatically affiliated to a hall once they gain admission into the university but it looks like things have changed lately. The new norm is that students have to wait for KNUST accommodation portal to be opened for application.
This has undoubtedly created a rigorous competition coupled with the pressure on the school’s server which normally leads to the downtime of the portal.
