Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement
Service (KUCCPS) has reopened the online application system for Revision of Choices
for placement of students to universities and colleges for the 2025/2026
Placement Cycle.
KUCCPS said applicants who did not secure a course in the
application that ended on April 30, 2025, have been invited to log in again and choose
remaining courses as listed on the portal.
Form Four Leavers who attained a mean grade in their
respective KCSE examinations but are yet to make an application for placement
have also been invited.
To access the portal, visit the KUCCPS website http://kuccps.ac.ke and
click the tab Student Portal.
The revision will run
from May 18 to May 27, 2025.
In the April announcement for
applications, KUCCPS noted that there were 40 public universities, 29 private
universities, and one Open University of Kenya available learning institutions
to apply.
The group is also eligible for the
Higher Education Loans Board (HELB).
A further 263 public colleges were
available and eligible for government scholarships and HELB loans, with an
additional 141 public colleges (KMTC and colleges in other ministries) and
university TVET available for applications.
Education Cabinet Secretary Julius
Ogamba had announced in February the intention to open the portal in March for
students who were seeking university placement for the September 2025 intake.
“In keeping with the annual
placement calendar, the Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement
Service (KUCCPS) will open the placement portal for the September 2025
university intake in March 2025,” Ogamba said.
KUCCPS was established in
2014 to coordinate the selection of students for enrolment in universities,
teacher training colleges, national polytechnics, technical and vocational
education and training (TVET) institutes and other training institutions.
The agency also develops career
guidance programs for the benefit of students, collects and retains data
relating to student placement to universities and colleges and advises the
government on matters relating to student placement.
