The MKU admission list is the official record (names, application/reference numbers and programme placements) of applicants who have been offered provisional admission to study at Mount Kenya University for a given intake and academic year. Lists are published for different intakes (e.g., January, May/September) and for different categories of admission (government-KUCCPS placements, direct/sponsored, international applicants).

2025/2026 KUCCPS Admission Lists of Mount Kenya University
How students end up on the MKU admission list (main routes):
- KUCCPS (government) placements — Students placed by the Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service are uploaded/announced to the university; MKU then notifies placed students and publishes KUCCPS lists where applicable.
- Direct / self-sponsored admission — Applicants who applied directly to MKU (online application or on campus) and meet programme entry requirements.
- International applicants and affiliate intakes — These follow a separate verification and admissions process (visas, document verification).
Where and how to check the MKU admission list (step-by-step)
Primary official locations to check your MKU admission status:
- MKU official website — Admissions news and downloadable admission lists (PDFs) are posted on the university site. Check the Admissions or News/Announcements section (https://mku.ac.ke/).
- MKU Student Portal (applicants/new students) — This is the main online place to verify your admission status, download admission letters, and access your application/registration reference. Use your application reference number, index number or national ID as prompted (https://studentportal.mku.ac.ke/).
- KUCCPS portal — If you applied through KUCCPS, confirm placement on the KUCCPS portal (students.kuccps.net) and follow the KUCCPS/MKU instructions for confirmation. MKU publishes KUCCPS programme codes and instructions for government-placed students.
- MKU official social channels / SMS — MKU often sends SMS/email to successful applicants with a reference number and may post updates on official social accounts.
Common Reasons Why Your Name May Not Appear (and What to Do)
- Pending KUCCPS Placement
Your placement may still be in progress, as KUCCPS conducts placement and revision cycles in phases. Ensure that your application details are accurate and continue checking the KUCCPS portal regularly. - Incorrect KCSE Index Number or Year Entered
Placement results may fail to display if the index number or examination year is entered incorrectly. Confirm that you are using the correct format and re-enter your details carefully. - Late Application, Waiting List or Full Programme Capacity
In some cases, applications submitted after deadlines or programmes that have already reached full capacity may cause a delay or omission. Contact the university admissions office for clarification or explore the possibility of applying directly. - Programme Requirements Not Met
If the minimum mean grade or subject requirements for the selected programme were not achieved, your name may not appear. Consider reviewing alternative courses, related programmes, or bridging pathways where applicable.
Recommended Next Steps If Your Name Is Missing
