Admissions FAQ

President William Ruto granted the institution a Letter of Interim Authority on 15 September 2026, on the advice of the Commission for University Education (CUE), transitioning it from Kamagambo Adventist Teachers' College into an autonomous private university under the Seventh-day Adventist Church. An LIA authorises an institution to operate as a university while it works toward a full charter, so Kamagambo is not yet fully chartered. Current status can be verified directly with CUE.

Absolutely. The In-Service mode (April, September, November intakes) is designed for serving teachers and professionals — evening and weekend-friendly scheduling lets you study without leaving your post.

Clear copies of your KCSE/terminal certificates, a national ID or passport, a recent passport-size photograph, and any prior tertiary qualification. Incomplete applications may delay processing.

Fees are payable by Lipa na M-Pesa (Paybill 4151775) or bank deposit to the university Ecobank account. The University does not accept cash, personal cheques or money orders. See the Fee Structure page for amounts and paybill details.
