KUCCPS asks varsities, colleges to submit courses ahead of 2026 placement

The Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) has asked universities and colleges across the country to submit their courses and student capacities as preparations begin for the placement of the 2025 KCSE class and other qualified candidates.

The declaration of programmes and capacities will run from October 6 to October 31, 2025, which marks the first step in the placement process for next year’s university and college entrants.

“The declared programmes must be those currently offered by your institution and duly accredited by the Commission for University Education (CUE), or by the Technical and Vocational Education and Training Authority (TVETA) in the case of TVET programmes,” said Dr Wahome.

The placement agency has also written to Principals of National Polytechnics, Technical and Vocational Colleges, Technical Training Institutes, Institutes of Technology, and Secondary Teacher Training Colleges, asking them to provide details of their approved programmes for the upcoming cycle.

Similarly, Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) has been requested to submit its accredited courses and capacities for publication on the KUCCPS online placement system in readiness for the 2026 placement.

Dr Wahome added that the Kenya School of Law has also been asked to declare its approved programmes, noting that the Diploma in Law (Paralegal Studies) course was filled to capacity after being listed on the KUCCPS system for the first time this year.
