Kenya’s Lukenya University Faulted for increasing Fees, What Next?

“Hey Nyakundi. Kuna story hapa about Lukenya University. Looks like KUCCPS is colluding with some private universities to lure unsuspecting students to their schools. I am a parent of a student who recently joined Lukenya University for the Bachelor of Nursing program. However, the school is hiding information about school tuition fees. I have the following questions.

1. The admission letter conveniently does not state whether the listed tuition fee is for the first semester or the entire year. In fact, the header above the letter states that it is the fee structure for 2025 (a calendar year?).

2. Upon arrival at school admission, we were informed that the listed fees are for “a semester.”

3. A week later, my niece calls me and reports that the program is split into three trimesters for each academic year. Shockingly, we have to pay the full tuition amount for each of the three trimesters! Do not parents and guardians need to know this prior to admission?”
