Karatina University Admission List 2025/2026 KUCCPS Intake | Check Here

The admission list is the official record showing applicants who have been offered places at Karatina University (KarU) for a particular intake and academic year. It includes students admitted through KUCCPS (government placement), direct admission or other institutional routes. Being on the list is provisional pending verification of your original academic documents and any other checks the university performs.

2025/2026 KUCCPS Admission Lists of Karatina University

There are two primary places to look:

• Karatina University Admission Letters Portal — the university runs an online “Admission Letters Portal”(https://karu.ac.ke) where admitted students can retrieve and download their personal admission letters (you typically need your KCSE index number and year). This portal is the authoritative source for your admission letter and registration number.
• KUCCPS / KUCCPS portal announcements — if you applied through KUCCPS, your placement may first appear on the KUCCPS portal (https://kuccps.net/); KarU then posts guidance and links on its website for KUCCPS-admitted students. Always follow the KarU links for the specific admissions intake.

Important administrative steps after your name appears

• Download the admission letter from the KarU portal and confirm your registration number.
• Read joining instructions carefully — reporting date, verification venue, what to bring, laptop requirement (if applicable), and COVID/medical guidance if still relevant. KarU has, in recent intakes, indicated a mandatory laptop requirement for first years; check the current intake notice.
• Pay fees or follow payment instructions — the admission letter or KarU’s fees page will show the fee structure and payment methods.
• Document verification — present originals and copies at the Admissions/Registry office when you report. Admission remains provisional until verification is successful.
• Activate your university email and portals as instructed — KarU provides email retrieval and student portal links for new students.

Types of admission you may see on the list

• KUCCPS placement (government-sponsored/regular placement) — students are placed via KUCCPS into KarU programmes. KarU will publish specific instructions for KUCCPS students (how to retrieve KUCCPS admission letters or KarU-specific admission letters).
• Direct admission / Self-sponsored — students admitted directly by KarU after applying to the university. These students also download admission letters from the portal and follow the same verification steps.
• Inter-university transfers and special intakes — these are usually handled case-by-case and require additional paperwork.
