Kyambogo University has released its full list of government-sponsored students for the 2025/2026 academic year. The list, published under the National Merit Admission scheme, features students who excelled in the 2024 Uganda Advanced Certificate of Education (UACE) exams.
This annual list is highly anticipated across the country as it determines which top-performing students will benefit from full government sponsorship for their university studies. The selection is entirely merit-based, aimed at promoting academic excellence and supporting Uganda’s brightest students.
According to university officials, the selected students earned their spots through stellar academic results and were chosen after a rigorous national review process. The beneficiaries will receive tuition, functional fees, and a living allowance fully covered by the government.
Prospective students can now access the full admission list online via Kyambogo’s official website. The university has provided a direct link for quick verification: 👉 Kyambogo Gov’t Sponsorship Admission List 2025/2026
University spokespersons have urged admitted students to stay alert and follow updates through official channels. These will include details on orientation dates, registration deadlines, and requirements for confirming their slots.
Students are advised to prepare relevant documents in advance, including their original UACE certificates, birth certificates, and national identification cards.
Detailed instructions on how to secure accommodation and complete medical clearance will also be issued soon.
This announcement marks a major milestone in the 2025/2026 higher education calendar, especially for students from underserved backgrounds. Government sponsorship provides an essential lifeline to thousands of talented learners who might otherwise struggle to fund university education.
Kyambogo University, one of Uganda’s largest public institutions, offers a wide range of academic programmes in science, education, arts, engineering, and business. It plays a vital role in shaping Uganda’s next generation of professionals, educators, and innovators.
The release of this year’s list reinforces Kyambogo’s reputation for transparency and meritocracy. It also sets the tone for upcoming admissions at other public universities such as Makerere, Gulu, Mbarara, and Busitema.
With the academic year fast approaching, all admitted students are encouraged to stay engaged and follow guidance from the university to ensure a smooth start.
