“Further to the extension notice issued by KUCCPS on February 25, 2022, and to ensure that all the remaining applicants get a chance to submit their choices both to universities and colleges, the Ministry of Education has instructed the Placement Agency to extend the deadline for seven more days, until March 4, 2024,” read the statement in part.
KUCCPS had on Sunday announced the extension of the deadline until it ascertains that all targeted students have applied.

The Education CS noted that a technical team comprising representatives from relevant agencies has been put together to fast-track the application transactions.
“In the meantime, applicants whose payments are experiencing unusual delays are encouraged to use the USSD code *222# to confirm their payments and/or trigger validation. A detailed procedure for the process is to be disseminated by KUCCPS immediately,” CS Machogu added.
