Start by accessing the official Higher Education Financing website. This is the primary platform where all scholarship applications are processed. Ensure you are on the correct website to avoid any fraudulent activities.

Before proceeding with the application, carefully review the list of requirements provided on the website. These include a valid email address, registered telephone number, KCSE index number, passport-sized photo, ID copy, admission letter, and other necessary documents. Ensure all documents are ready before starting the application.

Once you have all the required documents, click on the ‘Apply Now’ button on the website. Note that this button may be deactivated if the application period has ended. In such cases, wait for the next application cycle.

Fill out the registration form with accurate details. Provide your email address, national ID number (if available), and KCSE index number. If you don’t have a national ID, you can use your KCSE index number as an alternative.

The system will prompt you to verify your national ID or KCSE index number. Ensure the details match the official records. If your ID number is not found, use your KCSE index number to proceed.
