Hello Wazuans,

I refer you to www.studies.co.ke for information on educational opportunities, study materials, courses, institutions and scholarships available to Kenyans.

The website enables people to find the right information on courses in the hundreds of educational institutions across Kenya and beyond.

It provides students, educators and the general public with an avenue of sharing information about the educational institutions through reviews.

The website has a knowledge sharing feature that promotes legitimate sharing of class- and subject-specific notes and other educational resources among its registered users.

The website welcomes contributions of up-to-date and accurate information from students, educators, course providers and institutions as it seeks to be your ultimate source of information on educational opportunities in Kenya and beyond.

Your site returns interesting results for simple searches with some institutions left out.
e.g. "Medicine" is offered at Mount Kenya University and University of Nairobi. Are they the only two that offer it at the undergraduate level?

"Engineering" (undergraduate) is offered at 10 institutions. Seem to remember enough of these institutions having issues with the Engineer's registration board:

Done your research?

For Law (undergraduate), there was a list of accredited institutions issued some time back. Its available at the school of law website. A simple search on the site returns schools that are NOT accredited. This will mislead Kenyans who’re chasing for papers.

@For Sport. Thanks for your feedback. We will add more medicine courses offered by other institutions. As for the law courses, most institutions are on the KSL link that you have shared -- for the two that are not, we have indicated accordingly. Your feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

You clearly did not READ the information contained in the notice from the council for legal education. A search for undergraduate law degrees produces results showing that these are offered at:
1. Inoorero
2. Mount Kenya University
3. Kabarak
4. Presbyterian University of East Africa
5. Kabianga (didnt even know a University existed by that name)
NONE of the these institutions is accredited as an institution of Legal Education - in English, they cannot offer law degrees.

The Universities which DO offer the courses are not there. Per the notice, they are:
Catholic, UON, Moi, JKUAT, Kenyatta.

Why put misinformation out there?
Do due diligence for the rest of the information contained on your site

@For Sport. Our information has been provided by the institutions. Their courses may not be accredited yet, but the institutions DO offer the courses and are probably in the process of getting accreditation. Granted, the KSL link that you shared indicates that although the institutions have engaged with the Council of Legal Education for purposes of accreditation, they have not yet met the criteria for accreditation and have therefore not been granted provisional accreditation under the aforesaid provision. That doesn't mean that the institutions don't offer the courses. We have listed them because they offer the courses, as per their information.

Here are links to some of the institutions' law programs:
