Shocking details now reveal that at least 51,000 students who qualified for university admission after attaining the minimum grade of C+ in the 2025 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination have shunned universities and colleges after they failed to apply for placement.
In the results released yesterday, the placement results show that 202,133 candidates secured places in degree programmes.
KUCCPS Chief Executive Officer Mercy Wahome said about 17,000 of them will join private universities, leaving roughly 185,000 to enroll in public universities.
Another 28,246 university-qualified candidates opted to pursue courses at the Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC), while 500 were placed at the Kenya School of Law for the Diploma in Law (Paralegal Studies), 765 at Kenya Utalii College and 875 in secondary teacher training colleges.
