The new funding framework replaced the Differentiated Unit Cost (DUC) that was used to finance universities. The model has delinked placement from funding and puts emphasis on a student’s financial need. With the new model, universities and TVET institutions will no longer receive block funding in the form of capitation. Funding to students will be through scholarships, loans and household contributions.
We ensure sustainable financing of universities through resource mobilisation from government, foundations and donors.
