The Covid-19 pandemic that plaqued the world in the year 2020 presented lots of uncertainties to businesses including educational institutions. The lockdowns and restrictions called for new strategies to weather the storm that was wreaking havoc in all sectors of the world economy.

As part of strategies to ride out the storm, the Valley View University Administration put together a formidable twenty-member Online Admissions Team comprising members from the Registry, ITS, Financial Administration, University Relations and Quality Assurance with Mr. Samuel Kwame Amankwah as team leader.

By May, 2020, the team had begun its work in full force, implementing all the strategies and plans formulated during their meetings. 

Their strategy, hard work, and defiance of the pandemic culminated in the recruitment of some close to 2000 students who are enrolled in various programmes across the three Campuses of the University .

A year after they begun this impressive trailblazing feat, and upon submission of their report, the Principal Officers of the University, represented by the Registrar, The Pro-Vice Chancellor and the Dean of Students have met with the Online Admission Team to discuss the team´s report. 

The Pro-Vice Chancellor and Registrar, on behalf of Management, congratulated the team for a great work done, especially for processing admissions and issuing over 2800 admission letters to qualifying students amidst the lockdown. Management also pledged to implement the recommendations submitted in the report.

The Online Admissions Team indeed lived up to this quote by George S. Patton Jr “Don’t tell people how to do things; tell them what to do and let them surprise you with their results.”

The VVU Administration and the entire University Community say, ‘Ayekoo’ to the Online Admissions Team for a successful execution of their mandate.
