Kampala International University (KIU) Application (Admission) Guidelines and Requirements

Admission Requirements

An applicant may be admitted upon fulfilling five basic criteria: scholastic achievement, good character, financial support, good heath, and intentions and interests in harmony with the University mission and vision. Admission is a privilege. The University reserves the final decision on matters of entrance, retention, and withdrawal.

A candidate for a degree program, diploma or certificate in any faculty or school must comply with conditions and meet the selection set in the University's admission policy. The admissions committee has the right to refuse admission of any student.

Registered students in another higher education institution in the Republic of Uganda or any recognized institution of learning who desire to be admitted to the University shall be subjected to challenged examinations satisfactory to the Senate.

Students may not be admitted to any course in any subject until their curricula have been approved by the Senate. Such curricula may be modified only with the permission of the Senate.

Provisional admission

Provisional Admission may be granted to candidates who at the time of admission do not have original copies of required documents or those candidates who do not meet the entire criteria for regular admission for a period of not more than one semester during which all known deficiencies must be made up.

Note:

  • There may be additional requirements for specific academic programs, based on the professional demands.
  • People who fail to meet the minimum qualifications for direct entry may have to enroll in the ACCESS program. Such students require a minimum mean grade of C (Plain) to qualify for the ACESSS program.
  • Prospective applicants whose final High School grades are in percentage and average point systems, e.g. Sudan, DRC, Rwanda and Burundi, must have the grades first equated or standardized by Uganda National Examination board before KIU admission.
