- After acceptance, read the admission letter and complete registration and any hostel application using official channels.
Current intake, student services and fees
The university’s academic catalogue lists programmes at certificate, diploma, undergraduate, postgraduate and PhD levels. Government-sponsored students should use the KUCCPS option on the admissions portal and prepare their KCSE results, ID or birth certificate and passport photo. Self-sponsored applicants should register an account, complete the application and follow only the portal’s current fee instructions. The 2026/2027 calendar gives September 2026 reporting dates for particular schools; those dates do not automatically apply to future cohorts. Do not use the former university college’s paper forms or old fees.
