Accommodation issues
Abraham Maslow’s Theory of Humans needs attested to the fact that, Shelter is one prominent basic need of survival. Hierarchically arranging mans needs, he realized that, apart from food and clothing, shelter is the next thing man can not do without.

This forced must parent to rent hostels at the diaspora for their wards bearing their own cost meanwhile accommodation fees was inculcated into the admission fees they paid.
Data depicts that, the school has admitted 16,000 students into level one hundred (100) meanwhile, it is capacitated to admit only 6,000 students taking into consideration the number of beds they have.
This actual brought the chaotic situation. Some students complained that, they left no stone unturned struggling to go through the online accommodation registration procedure, but surprisingly, after going through all sort of hurtic moments to complete the registration, they walk round all the halls but were told that, no availability of rooms.
Due to this unforseen impediment, some of the students were forced to ignore the school with the intention of applying next year looking at how financially demanding it is to secure a hostel after payment of huge admission fee.
The least price for hostels available is 7,000ghc which is a tagg-off war at this trying time. It was like though the 15% increment in school fees affected the hostels pricing.

Authorities of the University later responded that, due to inadequate financial capability, that is why this nightmare emanated. One can recall that, during the 15% increment of school fees, UG did not agree, stating that, the rate was too low hence the consequences will be grievous or too aggravating.
One may be forced to believe that, this may be a deliberate handwork of the school authorities since they did not Concorde to the 15% increment at the initiate stage. Since this idea is not provable we have to debunk it in good faith.
Security issues.
According to graphic, the Ghana Security Service has intervened into the chaotic nature of the university which may trigger conflict. Police were therefore deployed to the University to enforce accommodation policy so as to ensure safety in the School.
