For an MBA degree,l would highly recommend USIU. The university has a well stocked library with the latest editions readily available.Unlike UON where a class is will have over 150 students,in USIU an MBA class has around 30 students ensuring a one to one interaction with the lecturers.
The strath MBA is also commendable but is more of an executive thing for managers who mostly share their work exeperiences. The other state universities' MBA are not worth due to shortage of books and over crowding.

Who said that few students is a class guarantees quality,havent you guyz witnessed Olympic primo in Kibera producing excellent results despite the congestion there. UoN is congested coz Kenyans want education and most people will not stand being ripped off their money in the name of Private Unis,guyz talking of books,I mean in current age you can get any book you want as long as your are serious!!!! Make money.....then you will enjoy all the fine things in life!!! ..."Wewe ni mtu mdogo sana....na mwenye amekuandika pia ni mtu mdogo sana!".

Ya Usiu na UON may be bure .........lakini Strathmore? Remember the quality of education at Strath has been top cream as evidenced by KCSE exams ..... always top 5 in the country,CPA best students mostly come from Strath and exam is external it follows that they can't be wrong with their MBA given that MBA is a business course just as CPA.

@ Kingfisher its good to contribute from a point of information.lts public knowledge students in state univeristies are notorius of (STD sexually transmitted degrees). l used to think a degree in USIU was guaranteed till l landed there and l had to work so much for my degree.Mind you l passed well in forth form (b+).
Olympic primary school used to perform well when primary school was 'private' and the ratio of students to teachers was managable. Where was olympics primary in last year's KCPE results? Bure kabisa like free education.
Why should you attend an MBA class in an overcrowded class? USIU receives many students but they have to be put in manageable class for effective teaching. UON they are hungry for money and that's why pack a class with so many students in one class. Am told some students take notes from the window. What a shame?
Please join USIU.

Did my MBA at a one of the colleges youre talking about.
My take. MBA's are to make you more employable,if this is what you want go ahead,but if you want to make real money use the money you have to start a business. E.g Irrigation Farming,youll be better off in the longer term.
However if you have your parents and old school guys advising you the best they know is '.. go to school and get a good job...'. Bill gates and Michael Dell are serious when they they advise graduates.
Be greedy when others are fearful,be fearful when others are greedy.

You should see the state universitie's lecturers when they come to teach at USIU. They have to teach all allocated classes from day one. No time wasting like they are used to in their backyards at the UON. At USIU students have to apparaise their lecturers at the end of the semester.
The university does not entertain the 'parastal' mentality and hence the same lecturers who are known for STDs in their backyard become very productive at USIU.Its called the power of private sector.

If they are sharp why are they in school? Lets face it the state universities are full of dirt. They still live in those days attending UON was the inthing. Those days are long gone and its time to wake up to reality.
The reality is that the public universities offer mediocre education,the libararies are not stocked and the lecturers still peddle those tired yellow notes written in 19 twende turudi.
Embrass modernity in a new era of technology in classes,well stocked library,one on one student to lecturer contact and performance appraisal Good bye UON and welcome to USIU.

Lets not confuse the preference due to proximity and demand for quality education. THE is very preferable because of proximity. THE is central to those working in various directions. A student working in town or on Mombasa Road would prefer to go to THE instead of USIU if money is an issue. and almost always,money is an issue. that doesnt necessarily mean that if the two universities had the same accessibility he would necessarily have chosen THE over USIU. that is the major contributor to THE being crowded.

@moibutu...USIU papers will not take u anywhere unless u r joining a family biz or a company they had confused their MDs with MBA scholarships. Everyone knows anyone who lands in private universities for their 1st degrees were NOT high performers in high school. a B+ is the lowest pass. Of those sitting high school,more than 70% select THE as their first choice for some selected degree programs. Of those who get admitted to other public universities,only 10% had selected that university. and for privates,it was NEVER your first choice as u sat for KCSE. Ni vile tu mambo iliharibika
And you continue with the GIGO! Who are some of your outstanding alumni? Do the graduates of privates proudly mention their unis in a social conversation having guys from THE? Do they walk with their heads held up high?
THE remains the number 1 place that attracts the best brains in this country. If you are not the best,then you belong to others
Where else would it be?

@applebees, My argument with you revolves about your statement 'Do the graduates of privates proudly mention their unis in a social conversation having guys from THE? Do they walk with their heads held up high?' All people cannot be accomondated in the 'THE' but pity to you if you still have that mentality and you are poor. What is important is not the THE but how you can deliver.I work with chaps who are KEMU,Daystar,USIU and I can assure you they are good,I mean they can deliver. Our CEOhas masters from Strathmore,my boss have masters from USIU and without any biasness,they can perform. Do not be balkanised by the institution you attended but ask your self,can you deliver. I pesonally attended the 'THE' but I can assure you that I will not do my masters there.Who cares whether you are THE person or USIU.The question is.......how does your education help you to live well......I mean wealthy and healthy.

academic qualification and job productivity are not correlated. UON has what it takes if you real need challenges. i ve been there,thinks of MBA but the lectureres attitude is terrible. private unis are also changing,earlier mentality was for those that fail and have cash to spend'

@Apple
what would you call those students who have scored highly at O level,have been admitted in public universities but their parents have opted to take them to private universities? Do they change to be stupid too? Granted the entry level for private universities is lower than public universities but is it because the students who did not join the universities were stupid or is it because the State can not accomodate all the qualified students? How many State universities have been build since you were born in relationship to the population growth?
