This article contains information on the Kabale University, Kab Pre -University or Higher Education Certificate (HEC) Admission application Form for undergraduate programmes – 2022/2023 Intake and how to Apply. It also contains the Kabale University, Kab Pre -University or Higher Education Certificate (HEC) Application form download link, its online application where necessary as well as the Kabale University Pre -University or Higher Education Certificate (HEC) Admission requirements.

Kabale University will offer the Higher Education Certificate Programme (HEC),  effective from the 2022/2023 Academic Year. The programme name may differ from University to University. In some Universities, the programme is referred to as Pre-university or Bridging Programme to University education. In Uganda, the National Council for Higher Education has provided the Minimum Standards for the Higher Education Certificate Programme and Universities are encouraged to offer the programme to enable deserving students doing sciences to access higher education.

Some Universities in Uganda are already running the certificate programme. When Kabale University published an advertisement for the programme, comments from some people indicated that the University was attracting failures. This is NOT the case. The purpose of this press release is to provide information so that people may understand what the programme is about and the noble purpose it is expected to serve.

The current admission requirements to any higher education programme require at least two principal passes for degree programmes and one principal pass and two subsidiaries for a diploma programme.

Unfortunately, there is no remedial programme for candidates who qualify for UACE award but have not scored sufficiently good grades to enrol for a degree or diploma programmes. The only available option is for them to repeat Senior Six or enrol for Certificate programmes in tertiary institutions, using the Uganda Certificate of Education (O-Level). The  Higher Education Certificate Programme, therefore, is intended to provide the very needed alternative route to join higher education.   It is an equalizing/equity strategy because many such citizens would have not been able to benefit from similar training facilities enjoyed by their contemporaries.  In addition, this programme is a response to the call by the Government of Uganda for training institutions to promote science education.
