Moi University to admit 6,771 students despite cash woes

Moi University has welcomed 6,771 new students placed through the 2025 Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS), even as the institution continues to grapple with financial constraints that persist to affect its operations, writes Christine Opanda for Kenyans.co.ke.

In an official statement, Acting Vice-chancellor Professor Kiplagat Kotut congratulated and welcomed the cohort into the institution and assured them of the university’s commitment to academic excellence. According to the acting VC, this number of new first-year students can grow further as the inter-varsity transfer window will soon be opened, increasing the possibility of more students.

Moi University is one of Kenya’s oldest and most respected public institutions but, over the years, it has been facing a prolonged cash crunch with delayed capitation from the government and ballooning debts threatening to derail key services.
