The Financial Aid Office’ mandate is to deal with the administration and management of the University’s student financial aid programs.

Their products are:

• Loans
• Scholarships
• Work-study program
• College counselling

Strathmore has been giving students loans from various sources in the last couple of year; Strathmore University Loans, HELB Loans, KIVA and Merit Loans.

After students successfully complete their undergraduate degrees, their loan repayment period starts a year after graduation. Upon completion of the loan repayment, Strathmore University issues a loan repayment completion certificate – the certificate of clearance.

It is with this in mind that three graduates, were delightfully awarded with certificates of clearance on 20^th June, after fully repaying their student loans even before the repayment period was over.

The three Chepng’eno Lilian – currently working at I&M Bank: Nzioka Reza Matheka – currently working at ICEA lion group: Mwangi Rosemary Wanja – currently working at Ken bright Actuarial and Financial Services Ltd, had been studying on KIVA loans for their undergraduate.

Other students who have fully repaid their tuition loans include;

Kipruto Leilah Chepchirchir- SU Loan; Oluoch Justus Haggari- KIVA loans; Mururu Brenda Mwendwa- KIVA loans; Donie Golanda – KIVA loans; and Quinter Odongo –KIVA loans among others.

The office urges graduates with loans to work at paying their dues in order to assist other needy students to benefit in future.
