The Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) on Monday, February 26, announced the new deadline for applications to give more students time to secure their dream schools and career paths.

The extension has been prompted by the widespread technical glitches on the platform, which have hindered students from completing their applications. Despite these challenges, KUCCPS has assured students that efforts are underway to rectify the issues and ensure a smooth application process.

Students have been urged to make their applications before March 4. As the applications continue, Kenyans.co.ke has compiled a list of certificate and diploma courses charging up to Ksh60,000.
