The Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) has set aside next week Monday for a revision exercise to be carried out in different centres across the country. The Placement board has said that this is the first revision exercise and aims to give a chance to more than 70000 students to choose their courses based on their already calculated cluster points.

 

The Placement Service Board during its Fifteenth Meeting, held on April 1, 2016, based on the total declared capacities for Degree Programmes under Government Sponsorship, and the performance analysis of the 2015 K.C.S.E examination results, set the Cut-off point for placement to Degree programmes at B of 60 points for male candidates and B- of 58 points for female candidates.

 

This translates to a total number of 74,389 2015 KCSE candidates who will join Universities in 2016/2017 up from 67,790 in 2015/2016.

 

In addition 50,338 candidates will have an opportunity to access government sponsorship at Diploma colleges (Technical Vocational Education Training) in 2016/2017 up from 44,468 in 2015/2016. All 2015 K.C.S.E. as well as previous years candidates with a minimum overall grade of C – (Minus) and above and have not benefited from Government Sponsorship in the past are eligible to apply for Diploma programmes.

 

The Placement Service therefore wishes to announce that the online application system will open for the first revision of Degree and Diploma choices for the 2016/2017 placement to Universities and Colleges on Monday, April 11, 2016 at 0000 hours and will close on Saturday April 30, 2016 at midnight.

 

Applicants who meet the cut-off point set by the Placement Service for placement to Degree programmes may as an alternative apply for diploma programmes of their choice, while those below the degree cut-off points but with a minimum grade of C- may only apply for diploma programmes, following the procedure outlined in the Placement service website.

 

Application will be done online by all applicants including those who had submitted their applications earlier through their respective schools and would wish to revise their choices. There will be no manual application.

 

The relevant guiding information such as degree and diploma programmes per university and college, subject clusters, similar programmes previous cut off points (where applicable) weighted cluster calculation by performance index, may also be accessed as downloads Here.
