mak.ac.ug and pay an application fee of Shs. 50,000/= for E. Africans and US. $75 or its equivalent
in Uganda Shillings for other International applicants. Applications for International Students
are received during the period the University places a call/advertises for Private sponsorship.
2. FILLING THE APPLICATION FORM

Each candidate is encouraged to ensure that they apply to programmes where they possess the admission
requirements and should be accurately completed. Untidy applicaton forms will be rejected
2.1 Candidate’s Name
The candidates’ names MUST be written in full and in capital letters. The names must also be identical
to the ones used for registration at Uganda Certificate of Education (UCE) and ‘A’ Level examinations
(form six). No abbreviations will be accepted. Even if the names were indicated on the Pass slip as
initials, they must be written in full on the application.
2.2 University Programmes
A student may apply for a maximum of Ten programmes (Six choices for National Merit admission
and other affirmative schemes i.e. Talented Sports Persons and Persons with Disabilities and
another four choices for District Quota admission) offered at the different Public Universities on the
same application.
Candidates should critically think about the choices of the Degree / Diploma programmes they
wish to apply for before completing the application as it will not be possible to change these choices
once the applications have been received by the University.
The programmes at the Universities are represented by three letter Codes; these are the Codes to be
filled in the space provided for each programme. The list of degree programmes and their codes is
attached. Candidates are advised to ensure that they write the correct codes for the respective
Degree Programmes. Candidates should seriously note that a wrong Programme Code would result into
the Candidate’s name being omitted from the list of applicants for that particular programme(s).
2.4 Advice on making your Choices for Degree / Diploma Programmes
It has been noted over the years that some candidates apply for only Traditional, ‘Popular’ and highly
competitive programmes: e.g. LAW, ECO, BIB, AFD etc on the Arts side and MAM, MBM, PHA,
MED, ECD, ELE, ARC etc on the Science side. Such candidates don’t make choices on programmes
such as KDA, AID, DES, BGD, BLM, and SEB, ESP, SCP, CTD, BCB or BFS among others. In several
instances, many of those candidates do not qualify for the highly competitive programmes but would
qualify for the ‘moderately’ competitive programmes if they had applied for them.
2.5 Other Tertiary Institutions
Space is provided for candidates who wish to apply for programmes at the other Tertiary Education
Institutions. The codes for programmes offered at those Institutions are also provided represented by
four (4) Numerical codes.
2.6 Candidate’s Index Number
CORRECT INDEX NUMBERS MUST BE FILLED IN THE APPLICATION FORM for example
U0001/501. That is, the Index Number should be written in full, clearly indicating the centre number
and the candidate’s number as well.
2.7 Citizenship
2
The appropriate CITIZENSHIP should be clearly indicated in the excel sheet. International students or
Non-Ugandans are not permitted to apply for government sponsorship. They should apply under private
sponsorship, which are found on the respective University Websites e.g. applications.mak.ac.ug
2.8 Gender
The Candidates should indicate their gender whether they are MALE (M) or FEMALE (F).
2.9 District
It is important that the right Home District is indicated in the appropriate space. Appendix E has
Codes for all districts in Uganda. This is very important especially in relation to district quota admission.
Candidates/applicants are warned against indicating wrong districts. Some indicate districts where
their schools are located instead of their own home districts. If this is discovered either at registration or
afterwards, the affected person’s admission will be cancelled.
2.9.1 A provisional admission list of Candidates shortlisted and recommended for admission on District Quota
will be published following the set policy. The names of the shortlisted candidates will then be forwarded
to the Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES) by the University Admission Committee for onward
transmission to District Local Councils for verification. After verification, the districts will send back
the names of approved and/or rejected candidates to the Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES) for
final compilation and formal admission by respective Universities.
2.10 Year of A’ Level Examinations and Centre Name
The year of A’ level Examinations e.g. 2023 and school centre MUST be properly filled in the excel
sheet or directly into the online application portal. This information enables the University Admission
Committee to differentiate and identify candidates who have sat A’ level examinations in different years
and centres.
2.11 O-Level Results
Candidates should provide correct information on the year of O’Level, the Index Number. Candidates
who sat examinations outside Uganda should submit photocopies of original documents in addition
to UNEB equivalents. The result slips should be taken to Makerere University, Senate Building Room
302 and 317. Candidates who obtained an overall Grade of 7, 9, Y or Z at O’Level do not qualify
for University admission and need not apply. One should have also passed at least 5 subjects at ‘O’
Level (i.e. 5 subjects without a Grade 9).
2.12 False Information/Impersonation
Candidates are warned that cases of impersonation, falsification of documents or giving false/incomplete
information whenever discovered either at application, registration or afterwards, will lead to automatic
cancellation of admission, besides being referred to Police and Courts of Law for prosecution.
2.13 Choices of B.A. and B.SC. Subject Combinations
a) B.A. EDUCATION, B.A. SOCIAL SCIENCES & B.A. ARTS Subject combinations
Applicants admitted to the Bachelor of Arts (Education), Bachelor of Arts (Social Sciences) and Bachelor
of Arts (Arts), Degree Programmes offered at Makerere University in the College of Humanities and
Social Sciences and Kyambogo University in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences; take specific
subjects in those programmes. The University Admission Committee allocates these subjects taking into
account the applicants’ choices, the capacities of the Departments and the timetable limitations. The
list of subjects available in the three Schools of the College of Humanities at Makerere University is at
APPENDIX A (I, II, III, IV & V)..
APPENDIX A also shows the Codes and the corresponding possible subject combinations, which the
candidates should apply for. The subject combinations belong to the School where two of the subjects
belong. For example, a candidate allocated POS, SOC, ECO would belong to the School of Social
Sciences. The candidates who may want such a subject combination should apply for admission to
BA(SS) whose Code is ASS. On the other hand, a candidate allocated ECO, GEO, PHI would belong to
the School of Liberal and Performing Arts and should accordingly apply for admission to BA(A) whose
Code is ARS.
3
The Digit/Numerical Code for each subject combination should be filled in the space provided e.g. 001
for POS, SOA, SOC. There is provision for three subject combinations. An applicant will be considered
for allocation for the 1st subject combination. In case the 1st choice subject combination is not possible,
one of the remaining two or any other combination may be allocated. Please ensure that you use the
new subject codes as they appear because some of the codes have changed.
b) B.SC EDUCATION & BSC. BILOGICAL, PHYSICAL & ECONOMICS Subject
Combinations
Each Candidate admitted to the B.SC Education & BSC. Degree programme will be allocated a set of
2 subjects. The two allocated subjects should have been passed well at A- level. The list of subjects
offered in the College of Education & External Studies and College of Natural Sciences at Makerere
University is shown in Appendix A (VI & VIII). The subject of Biology offered at A-level is split into
Botany and Zoology for BSc. Biological Sciences at the University.

3. ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS FOR UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMMES

(a) A candidate shall be deemed eligible for consideration for admission to a first degree programme at
4
the University if the candidate has obtained:
i) The Ugandan Certificate of Education with a minimum of 5 Passes or an equivalent qualification,
and
ii) At least two Advanced Level Principal Passes in approved subjects at the same sitting of the
Uganda Advance Level Certificate of Education Examination (‘A’ Level) or an equivalent
qualification.
For purposes of this regulation, except where otherwise provided for, all subjects offered by the
Uganda National Examinations Board at ‘O’ Level and ‘A’ Level are regarded as approved subjects.
(b) College/School/Faculty requirements.
Within the framework of the General Direct Entry Requirements, there are specific College/School/
Faculty requirements which candidates must fulfil to gain admission to a programme in a specific
academic unit of the University.
3.1 The Weighting System
IMPORTANT TO NOTE: The existing Weighting System shown below applies
to all Ten (10) Public Universities. Candidates are therefore advised to study and understand the weighting
system before completing the application and ensure that they get access to an updated weighting system
for 2024/2025 Admissions.
3.2 Weighting Criteria
All subjects taken at the Advanced Level of Education are grouped into three categories and weighted as
follows for purposes of admission to any programme of Undergraduate study in the University.
S/NO. SUBJECT CATEGORY SUBJECT SCORE WEIGHT
1. Essential x3
2. Relevant x2
3. Desirable x1
3.3 For A’ Level grades, the conversion Subject score scale is A=6, B=5, C=4, D=3, E=2, O=1, F=0 points.
The Essential A’ Level subjects for University Programmes must be passed with a Principal Pass. A
Principal subject passed at Subsidiary level i.e. Grade O can however be weighed as Relevant but not as
an “Essential”.
3.4 For a given candidate, not more than three subjects taken at the principal level shall carry a weight of 3,
2, or 1.
3.5 Not more than two subjects shall be weighed as “Essential”.
3.6 A pass with a Distinction or Credit in a subject taken at subsidiary level such as General Paper, Sub-
Maths or Computer Studies shall carry one point. A subsidiary pass ranges from grades D1 to C6.
In case of programmes where “Essential” subjects may be three or more, an “Essential set” of subjects
is defined. The best-performed two subjects of the essential set shall be designated as “Essential
Subjects” and weighted three. The 3rd best done subject from the Essential Set shall be designated as
the “Relevant Subject” and weighted two.
3.7 When computing points, special programme requirements are also taken into consideration.
3.8 For ‘O’ level grades, Distinctions 1 & 2 carry 0.3 points, Credits 3 to 6 carry 0.2, Passes 7 & 8 carry
0.1 and Fail (9) carries 0.0 weights respectively. All the subjects done are weighed.
S/NO. SUBJECT GRADE SUBJECT GRADE WEIGHT

1. Distinction (D1, D2) x 0.3
2. Credit (C3, C4, C5, C6) x 0.2
3. Pass (P7, P8) x 0.1
5
4. THE COMBINED WEIGHT OF A CANDIDATE FOR ADMISSION TO THE UNIVERSITY
a) The O’Level weight of a candidate for any programme in the University, is obtained by multiplying
the numbers of Distinctions/Credits/Passes, by the relevant weights and adding up for the
Distinctions, Credits and passes actually obtained by the candidate.
b) The ‘A’ Level weight, for a given programme, of a candidate is obtained by multiplying each subject
grade point by the relevant weighting factor and adding up for all the subjects taken and passed.
4.1 The combined weight of a candidate for a given programme is obtained by adding the O’Level
weight obtained (a) above to the ‘A’Level weight obtained (b) above. The best candidate for each programme
is the one with the highest combined weight.
4.2 Candidates are selected on merit from those who apply for a programme as their first choice plus those
who apply for the programme as 2nd, 3rd, 4th choice etc., if they have not been admitted to programmes of
their earlier choices. All choices are considered sequentially.
5. THE POLICY ON SPONSORSHIP BY UGANDA GOVERNMENT

With effect from the 2005/2006 Academic year, the admission policy is as follows:
a) 75% of the total number of the slots for government sponsorship is competed for nationally
on Merit. These slots are on programmes identified as critical areas for national
development and are spread all over the nine Public Universities as shown on the list of
programmes under each University.
b) The remaining 25% are distributed as follows:
i) 40 slots are for talented sports men/sportswomen (20 Male and 20 Female)
ii) 64 slots are filled by persons with disabilities.

Disability Scheme will have to appear for Medical/Review exercise at Makerere University,
Senate Building in the month of June and the announcement indicating the actual dates will
be communicated through the press around that time.
iii) 896 slots are competed for through the District Quota basing on the district population.
Preference is given to candidates who sat A’ level examinations at schools located in their
home district. In some cases if the slots are not filled by those specified above, those who
sat outside their home district may be considered.
c) The 1.5 points scheme for female candidates under Affirmative Action. From 1990, 1.5
points scheme was introduced in order to boost the number of female students enrolling
for University Education.
d) i) STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) programmes at Makerere
University shall have a 40%: 60% ratio during admission for female and male candidates
effective academic year 2020. The performance of either gender determines the numbers
eligible for admission to a particular academic programme within the ratios.
