The University appreciates ACCESS Kenya's support for bright, needy students and recognizes the role the charity is playing in easing financial constraints for students and helping them realize their career dreams. ACCESS Kenya, a registered charity, has been providing scholarships to underprivileged post-secondary students in Kenya since 1993 and aims to alleviate poverty through education.
