It is a university that is highly affected by politics and tribalism. Initially, the university had a well functioning management that was ousted by tribal politicians. They then embezzled the funds and now the school is almost collapsing. There are regular strikes by the school’s staff because they haven’t been paid for months!
There’s is insecurity in the school, lectures are affected by the strikes which increase the number of years you take to complete a course. This of course is not favourable to many students as it causes a strain in their finances. The education in other schools like the school of arts is not quality because of few lecturers.
Likes? It is located at a place where life is generally cheap.
Would I recommend it? No.
Moi University, located in Eldoret, Kenya, is one of the country’s largest public universities and is known for its diverse academic programs, especially in engineering, education, and business. The campus offers a vibrant student life with a wide range of cultural and extracurricular activities. Like many students, I appreciated the university’s strong academic foundation, affordable tuition compared to private institutions, and the opportunity to study alongside peers from across the region.
However, as with many large public universities, some students note challenges such as overcrowded classes and occasional administrative delays. Overall, Moi University provides a well-rounded academic experience with a balance of quality education, cultural exposure, and professional growth opportunities, making it a strong option for students seeking affordable higher education in Kenya.
