KUCCPS Notifies KCSE Students Seeking University Slots 24 Hours to Deadline.
The Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) on Wednesday, April 3, issued a 24-hour notice for Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) to apply for tertiary courses.
This majorly targeted 2023 KCSE students who are seeking to apply for slots in different universities and colleges.
KUCCPS revealed that the application portal would be closed on Thursday, shutting them out from chances to pursue higher education.
It was also announced that the KUCCPS portal offers partial accessibility to students who sat for their KCSE exam between 2000 and 2022.
These students will be qualified to apply for artisanal courses, degrees, and certifications, according to KUCCPS.
The application portal expires on April 4, 2024, which is tomorrow. Apply for degree, diploma, or certificate programs as well as artisan courses by visiting students.kuccps.net, according to KUCCPS.
Notably, only students who received a C+ or higher on their 2023 KCSE examinations are eligible to enroll in the degree programs.
A C (plain) or C- (minus) allows a student to enroll in some diploma courses.
For students who received a D (simple) or D- (minus), certificate programs are available in colleges, polytechnics, and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET).
The remaining students from various TVET institutions may apply through KUCCPS artisanal courses.
Except for 2023, students who received a C+ or higher in any other year are still eligible for degree programs, but they must apply directly to the university of their choosing.
Although they won’t be qualified for government subsidies under this program, students can still apply for loans from the Higher Education Loans Board (HELB).
