  24. Which is better at muk hand written application or online and after applying online does one still have to present result slips to the University

    Reply
    • Junior, Makerere University encourages applicants to use the online application portal, when applying online you will have to upload your documents or result slips ( they should be scanned ). The hand written application is also good, but more suitable for students within the vicinity of the University.
