Architecture College Application Checklist for Kenyan Students

Before you apply for Architecture in Kenya, confirm the exact award, entry route, required documents, fees and timetable for that programme. This checklist helps you compare official information without assuming that every “architecture diploma” has the same requirements.

Check the published KENCID route

Our Architecture page lists Diploma, Certificate and Foundation requirements separately. Diploma: KCSE mean grade C- or equivalent, or a relevant certificate from KENCID or a recognised and accredited institution; 7 academic semesters inclusive of Practice-Oriented Learning. Certificate: KCSE mean grade D (plain) and above or equivalent, or a KENCID Foundation Course or equivalent from a recognised and accredited institution; 3 academic semesters. Foundation: KCSE mean grade D- or equivalent; 2 academic semesters. Check the full course page before applying.

Prepare your application carefully

Use the application instructions for the specific intake to identify required result slips, certificates, identification and forms. Do not send documents or pay fees based on an old social post. Save the official fee schedule and note any separate registration, examination or materials charges it lists.

Compare the study commitment

Read the timetable and attendance rules, especially for studio and practical work. Keep copies of what you submit and the written offer you receive. Our Admissions page explains how to get help with details the course page does not publish, such as current intake dates and flexible study options.
