How to Apply for KUCCPS Inter-Institutional Transfer
The Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) portal is now accepting applications for Inter-Institutional Transfer (IIT).
This process is designed for students placed in universities and colleges for the 2024/2025 Placement Cycle who wish to transfer to different institutions.
IIT also allows for course changes, provided the applicant meets the necessary cut-off points and receives approval from the new institution.
Application Instructions
To apply for an IIT, follow these steps:
- Log in to the Student’s Portal at students.kuccps.net.
- Click on the “Transfer Application” tab on the dashboard.
- Enter the code for the institution and program to which you wish to transfer.
- Select the reason for seeking the transfer.
- Make a payment of Kshs. 1,000 as per the provided payment instructions (detailed below).
- Submit your transfer application using the eCitizen Payment Reference Code.
You can monitor your application’s progress through the Student’s Portal. Both the receiving and releasing institutions must endorse your application, and this status can be tracked online.
If the receiving institution does not endorse your transfer application, you will be notified via the portal and advised to choose another program within the same or a different institution.
After endorsements, KUCCPS will process the transfer request. Once approved, download and print the transfer letter, and submit a copy to your new institution to receive an admission letter and joining instructions.
