The Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service is a State Corporation whose mandate is to coordinate the placement of Government Sponsored students to universities and colleges, among other functions.
The Placement Service wishes to inform the 2016 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (K.C.S.E.) candidates and the general public that the 2017/2018 placement cycle commenced in November 2016.  The submission of applications by the candidates through their respective schools came to a close on January 15, 2017.
