State funding not automatic for those under KUCCPS placement

2022 Students who scored C+ and above will now be required to make fresh applications through the KUCCPS portal to be considered for State funding.

 

KUCCPS says, while everyone will get university placement, that will not directly translate to university funding as it has been in the past.

 

Students who scored C+ and above will now be required to make fresh applications. If not successful but decide to accept their placements, the students will now be required to foot their university education.

 

The university funding be pegged on merit, the level of need, national priorities and affirmative action. With the government proposed criteria, 30,088 out of 70,088 students who scored C+ will miss out on university funding.

 

The students who will miss out on government sponsorship will have to pay Ksh48,000 -52,000 per semester for their undergraduate degree courses as proposed by President William Ruto’s task force on Education.

 

Meanwhile, KUCCPS has not yet opened the portal for application. Once they open, they will officially communicate on their website and social media.
