The Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) is a state corporation under the Ministry of Health, with a mandate to provide a range of training programs in the field of health sciences. The KMTC was established in 1927 at the Nairobi campus, but the medical college has expanded to almost every part of the country. Therefore, if you are a student looking forward to joining the esteemed place of learning, understanding the various KMTC branches in Kenya is key to succeeding in your educational journey.
As of the time of writing this article, the Kenya Medical Training College has 88 campuses and 5 satellites, distributed across 45 of Kenya’s 47 counties. Not all campuses offer the same area of specialization in medical courses, and thus, if you are an applicant, choosing the right KMTC course is very important. You will need to consider factors such as proximity to your area of residence, campus specialization, and available facilities that play significant roles in deciding which campus you want to settle down at.
However, be aware that during the application, whether through the KMTC admission portal or the KUCCPS portal, you can select from the campuses and courses on offer, but the actual decision of settling for the specific campus you want to go to is not made by you, but rather by KMTC systems at work. You can check the KMTC website to understand how the shortlist process works in detail.
