Established in 1974, CSUC has consistently upheld its mission to provide quality education grounded in Christian values, and the conferment of the Presidential Charter makes it the 10th fully-fledged private university in Ghana.
The conferment of the Charter, according to President of the University, Professor Sam Afrane, crowned years of hard work and dedication by management, faculty, and staff who had work tirelessly to nurture the school to its current status.
He said as the University looked ahead for the next 50 years, it remained dedicated to its cardinal values of faith, integrity and excellence, stressing the need for the staff to adopt a new mind-set and right attitudes to reflect the new status of the University.
A press release issued by the University to announce the conferment of the Charter to the general public and its stakeholders, assured that “The new status will not negatively affect our time-tested core values and commitment to quality teaching and learning towards producing transformational leaders for societal advancement.”
