Why the Extra Round?
  • High Demand: Last month’s second revision for 2024 KCSE leavers saw record late-night traffic that temporarily slowed KUCCPS servers.

  • System Upgrades: KUCCPS has since expanded bandwidth to ensure a smoother experience in this application cycle.

  • Fair Access: The extra window gives candidates who missed earlier placement rounds another chance to secure a seat at KMTC.

Key Dates & Reminders
  • Portal Opened: Midnight, 24 June 2025

  • Portal Closes: 11:59 p.m., 7 July 2025

  • Intake: September 2025

  • Support: KUCCPS customer care lines and all Huduma Centres nationwide


Pro Tip: Submit your application well before the deadline to avoid last-minute server congestion and confirm that your choices are saved. Good luck with your journey into Kenya’s health-care sector!
