01
Before you begin
- Have your KCSE examination details available and use your own official account.

- Open the official Student’s Portal and sign in using the details requested by KUCCPS.
- Search programmes and compare their minimum grades, subject requirements, institutions and available options.
- Select choices that match your eligibility and interests, following the current portal instructions and any stated choice limits.

Important notes
- Only applicants who submit an application are considered for the programmes they select.
- Meeting the minimum grade does not guarantee placement into a particular programme. Follow the programme-specific requirements and current placement criteria.
- KUCCPS application dates and rules can change between cycles. Never share your password or one-time code with an unofficial agent.
