【 摘 要 】

Institutions of Higher Learning (IHL) are facing increasing competitive pressure from existing and new entrants in the global higher education marketplace. To compound the problem, many of these IHLs around the world have experienced sluggish growth in applications in recent years and thus are struggling to stay in business. This study investigated the role of marketing mix on students’ enrolment in IHLs in Ghana. The survey research approach was used. This enabled the researchers to access quantitative or numerical data of descriptions of trends, opinions of the sample by using questionnaires for data collection. The marketing mix elements (7Ps: product (programs/courses); price (fees/charges); place (location/environment); promotion (advertisement); process (admissions/procedures); physical evidence (facilities/ infrastructure); and people (staff/faculty)) served as the variables for the study. The study established a correlation between the various marketing mix elements and student enrolment in the IHLs.
