How to Check Your KUCCPS Placement Results for University or College in 2025

If you applied for KUCCPS placement and are eagerly waiting to know which institution you’ve been selected for, checking your results is easy and can be done in just a few steps. The Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) allows students to confirm their university, college, or TVET placement through its official online portal or via SMS.

What Do You Need Before Checking Your KUCCPS Placement Results?

To access your placement details, make sure you have the following information ready:

• Your KCSE index number
• Your KCSE examination year
• Your birth certificate number

When logging into the KUCCPS portal for the first time, your initial password will be your birth certificate number or KCPE index number (the one used during KCSE registration). Having these details on hand will make the process quick and seamless.

How Can You Check Your KUCCPS Placement Results Online?

The online method is the most reliable and straightforward way to confirm your university or college placement. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Go to the official KUCCPS website at www.kuccps.ac.ke.
2. Click on the “Student’s Portal” tab at the top right corner of the homepage.
3. Log in using your KCSE index number, exam year, and password.
4. Once logged in, you will see a “Congratulations” message if you have been successfully placed.
5. The screen will display your institution name, course, and other relevant admission details.
6. Remember to log out after checking your results to keep your information secure.

How Can You Check KUCCPS Placement Results via SMS?

If you prefer using your phone, KUCCPS also allows students to check their results through SMS. Here’s how:

1. Open your SMS app and type your KCSE index number (starting with your KCSE year, e.g., 2024XXXXXXXXX).
2. Send the message to 20842.
3. You’ll receive a reply with your placement details, including your assigned institution and program.

Keep in mind that this service comes at a slightly higher charge than standard SMS rates, so ensure you have sufficient airtime before sending.

How to Download Your KUCCPS Admission Letter

Once you’ve confirmed your placement, you’ll need your admission letter to proceed with registration at your assigned institution. Here’s what to do:

1. Log in again to the KUCCPS student portal using your details.
2. Click on the “Admission Letters” section.
3. Download and print your letter directly from the portal.

Without your admission letter, you won’t be able to complete your registration process at the university or college.

Checking your KUCCPS placement results doesn’t have to be stressful. Whether online or via SMS, the process is fast, accessible, and ensures you’re ready for the next step in your academic journey.
