The Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education students who sat for their exam last year will on Monday know the universities and colleges they have been placed.
The results will be announced by Education Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel Machogu at the Kenya School of government in Nairobi.
Students will be able to view the results on the Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) portal.
All courses available at the institutions are government-sponsored in line with the new university and TVETs funding model unveiled by President William Ruto on May 3.
The minimum entry point to university is C+.
Machogu will also be launching the portal for application of loans and scholarships by students.
The new model is primarily aimed at ensuring students from extremely poor backgrounds get equal opportunity of pursuing college or university education by getting higher capitation compared to their counterparts from able families.
Ruto said the government will effective this academic year adopt the funding model where capitation will be apportioned to students based on their level of need.
A total of 173,127 new cohort of students will be joining universities and 145,325 students be joining TVET institutions in the 2023/24 financial year.
