Tuition
- No SEKU-specific fee figures could be verified, though it appears in a January 2026 listing of Kenyan universities offering courses from as little as KSh 5,000 per semester. Request the current structure from info@seku.ac.ke or +254 748 605 997. As a public university SEKU students access both Universities Fund scholarships and HELB loans, means-tested across five household-income bands; apply at hef.co.ke once KUCCPS places you. Kitui living costs are well below Nairobi, and for students from Ukambani the university removes the need to relocate — which matters in an arid and semi-arid region where higher education access has historically been limited.
Admissions
- The national minimum for degree entry is a KCSE mean grade of C+, with programme-specific cluster requirements set by KUCCPS.
- SEKU's own entry requirements were not published — contact info@seku.ac.ke before ranking your choices.
- Worth asking about specifically: whether SEKU offers dryland agriculture or water resources programmes. Kitui is arid and semi-arid, and those would be a natural regional specialisation — but this was not confirmed.
- Accepts international applicants
- Scholarships or financial aid available
