This guide provides a clear, structured breakdown to help applicants avoid mistakes, verify their application details, and complete all admission steps correctly.

Verification Steps for Existing UPSA Applicants

All WASSCE candidates who have already applied for admission must log in to the official UPSA Admission Portal to verify their application records. Accuracy is critical, as errors can delay or affect the admission process.

Step 1: Visit the UPSA Admission Portal

Go to the portal:

Step 2: Check and Confirm Your Details

Ensure all information matches your WASSCE data and personal records:

  • Full Name
  • Date of Birth
  • WASSCE Index Number
  • Examination Month and Year

Any inaccuracies should be corrected immediately to avoid processing issues.

SMS Notifications for Successful Applicants

Applicants who meet the admission criteria and are offered admission will receive an official SMS notification from UPSA.

If you do not receive any SMS notification, you are still required to check your admission status manually using your Online Serial Number (OSN), which is the 15-digit alphanumeric code on your e-voucher.

How to Check Your Admission Status Using OSN

  1. Visit: https://upsasip.com/adm-area
  2. Enter your OSN
  3. Click the link provided to download your admission letter

This download serves as your official confirmation of admission.
