HELB Loan Application Requirements for First-Time Applicants 2024.
The Higher Education Loans Board (HELB) has invited all eligible candidates to apply for the funding as soon as the application portal opened.
In a statement, the loans board encouraged candidates to take advantage of this exceptional opportunity and submit their applications before the deadline.
HELB went on to list other requirements that candidates have to fulfill in order for the application process to be successfully finished.
According to the HELB, a candidate who wants to apply for funding needs to have a functional phone number and email address before starting the application process.
The Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) and Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) index numbers, as well as the exam year, must also be included.
Qualified applicants must also include a copy of a passport-size photo in jpeg, jpg, or png format in order for their application to be approved.
As with other application processes, candidates need to send a copy of their national identity cards, or Maisha cards, in PDF format with both sides visible.
For HELB to quickly disburse the funds, an applicant must furnish the board with valid bank account information or a legitimate MPESA number registered under their name and ID number.
The provision of birth certificates in PDF format will be necessary for applicants under the age of eighteen (18) in lieu of identification.
For individuals who are sponsored in secondary schools, a copy of the sponsorship letter in PDF format is needed.
Five days after HELB formally opened the application portal so that qualified students may submit their applications, the university has sent out its most recent statement.
The Education Cabinet Secretary’s order to the loans board to open its portal for student applications was followed by the decision to launch the application portal.
“To enable eligible students to apply for funding, I give CS Machogu the order to direct HELB and the Universities Fund (UF) to open the Higher Education Funding portal on June 15, 2024.”
“I would like to inform all guardians, parents, and students that the funding application results will be made public on July 31, 2024,” he said.
