Private universities want JAB scrapped
By West Fm 94.9 western kenya
The Joint Admissions Board should be dissolved is a mutual feeling among most of the private universities in Bungoma South District.
The board that selects and admits students to public universities is not entrenched in the Universities Act, which guides higher education in Kenya, the National Association of Private Universities said.
The JAB is not serving its purpose as it is now overwhelmed with many students that it has to leave many of them out of the selection. This year, only 24,000 out of 94,000 students who qualified to join university by attaining a mean grade of C+ in their Form Four exam were admitted by the Board.
