In addition, previous years K.C.S.E. examination candidates who had attained C- and above and did not qualify for government sponsorship in the respective year may also apply for Diploma programmes following the procedure outlined in the Placement Service Portal.


Statistics from the placement service indicate that 74,389 candidates will join 32 public universities in September.

Private universities have been allocated 10,000 government-sponsered students starting September on a pilot basis following recommendations of a task force set up by Education Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i.

The season of false faces and false promises is here.
Before elections they come in humility and a lot of sweet nothings; I shall ensure you get electricity, I shall tarmac all the roads, I shall reduce petroleum prices, I shall build schools, I shall ensure security, I shall bla bla ... All those sweet non-sense we are all used to. They never give us space to think of the promises and determine their reality. They pump into us sacks of promising future plans. 

Mwananchi without thought or scrutiny of these promises falls for candidates who in the end go back home having developed 'vitambis' squandering public money. Back at home is a wilting mwananchi due to lack of all the promises they thought had been made to them. Miserable and in fear of whether they will survive tomorrow, the ‘mheshimiwa’ families travel across worlds and wondering how to spend money.

I am obliged to say that we are honestly doomed. Falling from one reign of horror to another of terror. 

Day in day out we call for 'harambee' and they come with millions. When they leave, we celebrate them and even assure them more chances back in parliament without knowing where exactly they draw these grand money. Is it public money, is it personal money, or is there money set by government for harambees? I can't really tell too, but basically, fellow mwananchi we both need to bring that vigilance they talk to us about into leader-choice matters because if we don't, I promise you vision 2030 will just work well if we thought of it as just a mere statement. 

Look at the corruption cases right now, like on at the insecurity cases, look too at the poverty that has hugged us.  It is our duty to determine the future of our country. 

Whether it shall blossom is upon us.

NOW IS THE TIME AND THE DAY. KNOW YOUR LEADER, UNDERSTAND THEIR GOALS, DETERMINE THEIR POTENTIAL!! 

Do not let anyone deceive us anymore. As you line up in those voter registration queues, evaluate your wish for your country. Chose its fate like you think is best. 

WEWE NDIO MWAMUZI!

KNEC has asked candidates to thoroughly scrutinize their results for accuracy of names, index numbers, gender, school names, code, and individual subjects within the one month appeal window.
In October last year, pressure piled on the government through KNEC to cancel the KCSE examinations over massive irregularities that threatened to dent credibility of the national examinations.
Based on the total declared capacity for degree programmes under Government sponsorship, and the performance analysis of the 2015 K.C.S.E Examination results, the Placement Service will set the cut off point for 2016/2017 admission to degree programmes and diploma programmes. Last year, the cut-off points was at B of 60 points for male candidates and B- of 58 points for female candidates. In addition, all Candidates with a minimum overall grade of C- are eligible to apply for diploma programmes.
