Once accepted, the next crucial step is obtaining your study permit. This process requires meticulous documentation, including proof of acceptance, financial support, and a clear intention to return to Kenya after your studies. Many students also look for comprehensive travel packages that bundle flights, initial accommodation, and sometimes even airport transfers.
