How to Apply for KUCCPS Inter-Institutional Transfer

The Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) portal is open for Inter-Institutional Transfer (IIT) applications. The process targets applicants placed in universities and colleges in the 2024/2025 Placement Cycle and would wish to change their institutions. IIT also allows change of courses, provided that the applicant meets the applicable cut-off points, subject to endorsement by the receiving institution.

Application Instructions
