The University of Nairobi Choir was founded by the Late Dr. Arthur Mudogo Kemoli in the year 1988 after he returned to the University of Nairobi from the Ministry of Education, where he had been the Director of Creative Arts (Music & Drama).

The University of Nairobi endeavors to create an environment where all students despite their financial background can learn and excel to become holistic graduates and contribute to the development of the nation. Needy students who excel in their studies access bursaries and scholarships from the University and other development partners.  Several scholarships and grants are available for both undergraduates and graduate students who are seeking for financial assistance.

The Office of the Dean of Students, is fully engaged in the task of helping transform the university environment into one in which gifted and deserving students with disability will have an equal opportunity to acquire an education and as much as possible participate in the various aspects of university life. This includes facilitating access to university buildings, providing services, awareness activities and advocating for accommodating university policies and procedures.
