Students and parents have been shocked by the high fees indicated in the admission letters issued to them by various universities.
The fee structures indicate the total amount of fees for every course without factoring in government support. The cost ranges from Sh144,000 to Sh720,000 per year depending on the nature of the course and the university where it is offered.
Parents and students who will join the university in August and September will wait until July 31 2024 to know the exact amount of tuition fees they (students) will pay.
Education Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel Machogu has told the students that they will not pay the full fees indicated in their admission letters and that their family contribution will only be known after their funding applications have been processed.
