Our attention has been drawn to inaccurate information on Ghanaweb (https://mobile.ghanaweb.com/GhanaHomePage/NewsArchive/UG-maintains-spot-as-Ghana-s-best-University-UCC-UDS-drop-Report-1173079) indicating that the University of Cape Coast (UCC) has dropped in the ranking of universities. This information is incorrect and misleading. We entreat all stakeholders of the university to ignore and treat this erroneous information with the contempt it deserves. UCC is still number 3 when it comes to webometrics ranking of universities in Ghana. Please see the links below:

We would like to assure all stakeholders that UCC is still committed to improving its ranking through increased research output and web presence.
