How to apply online
- Open the official admission portal and select the programme category and course.
- Review the admission requirements, campus, tuition and available application period.
- Create an applicant account and fill in accurate personal and academic details.
- Upload a passport-sized photo, an ID or birth certificate or passport as appropriate, and academic certificates.
- Follow the portal’s current application-fee instructions, then submit the application.
- Use the application account to view progress; if offered admission, accept the offer and follow official registration instructions.
Application fees, tuition and safe payments
When checked in October 2026, the official application portal listed non-refundable application fees of KSh 500 for certificates, KSh 1,000 for diplomas and undergraduate degrees, and KSh 1,500 for master’s and PhD applications. These are application fees, not semester tuition, and may change. Confirm the amount on the official portal before paying. The 2016 article’s bank account numbers and M-Pesa paybill have deliberately been excluded from current payment directions.
Student services, location and contacts
Fees, accommodation, e-learning access and student registration depend on the current university offer letter and authenticated services. For general assistance, visit Kabarak University’s official website and admissions portal. The main campus is near Kabarak on the Nakuru–Eldama Ravine road. Historic Nairobi and Nakuru campus contact details in this directory may no longer describe the university’s current offices, so verify the relevant campus before travelling.
