Kamagambo University in Rongo, Migori County, became Kenya's 90th university when it received a Letter of Interim Authority on 15 September 2026. A change that big needs a website that can answer applicants, parents and partners clearly, from what the university offers to how and when to apply.

At a glance

Client: Kamagambo University
Sector: Higher education
Location: Rongo, Migori County
Live site: kamagambo.ac.ke (opens in a new tab)

The goal

Communicate the university's new status and make it easy for prospective students and parents to find programmes, entry requirements and intake dates, then apply.

What we built

A homepage announcing university status, with "Apply for January 2027" and "Explore programmes" calls to action
Programme pages: BEd Arts, BBA (Accounting and Management with Entrepreneurship), Bachelor of Theology with Entrepreneurship, plus diplomas and certificates
A 10-question FAQ for applicants covering accreditation, location, courses, entry requirements, intakes, fees, how to apply, ownership and faith requirements
Navigation for About, Academics, Admissions, Student life, Research, News, Library and Virtual learning
A message from the Chancellor and the university's guiding principles
A cookie consent banner with a clear option to reject analytics

Designed for how Kenyans buy

Prospective students and parents ask the same questions every intake. Putting the answers (accreditation, fees, entry requirements, intake dates) in a plain FAQ on the homepage serves them, and the same questions are exactly what Google and AI assistants are asked.

Measured quality

Google Lighthouse scores on mobile, measured by Kavenacc on 2026-10-04. Lighthouse results vary slightly between runs and change as the client adds content. You can re-run the test yourself on PageSpeed Insights (opens in a new tab).
