Last updated on February 28th, 2024 at 06:23 pm

Are you looking for D+ courses in university of Nairobi / Nairobi university diploma courses and fees? If  yes, you are in the right place.

Back then when I was in high school, we all had our dream university  and am sure even in the current days the situation still remains the same.

So, if you scored  D+ in your KCSE and your dream university is UON, then, this is the article you should  read to the  last word.

D+ courses in university of Nairobi and other Nairobi university diploma courses and fees

Without further ado, let us find out if there are D + plus courses offered at the university of Nairobi.

So, are there D + courses in university of Nairobi?

To hit the nail on the head, if you scored D+ in your KCSE, am sorry to tell you that, you can’t get a chance to join the university of Nairobi.

Why?

This is because the lowest level offered in the university is the certificate level, and to be admitted to pursue a certificate course, you must have a mean grade of C- in your KCSE.

In fact, there are no courses you can be admitted to pursue with less than a C-(minus) in your KCSE at the university of Nairobi.

Keeping that in mind, you might be wondering what next now that you can’t join the university of Nairobi.

So, is it impossible to join any university with a D+ in KCSE?

Well, if you are thinking that all is lost and your dream of joining the university of Nairobi or any  other university will never come true, am here to let you know that all is not lost.
