Hello! I have a question about the admission requirements and tuition fees( if any) of the EPSU.

Ethiopia Ethiopian Public Service University
Asked 1 month ago by Samuel Alemu 1849 views

Hello, I would like to ask for detailed information about the 2019 E.C. (2026/27) regular undergraduate admission at Ethiopian Public Service University (EPSU).

Could you please clarify the following:

  1. Admission eligibility

    • What are the admission requirements for the 2019 E.C. regular undergraduate intake?
    • Is the admission open to students from both Natural Science and Social Science streams?
    • Is there a minimum ESSLCE/Grade 12 national examination score required?
    • Are there any additional entrance examinations or tests required?

  2. Government sponsorship and cost-sharing

    • For students admitted through the regular undergraduate admission, are they government-sponsored or required to participate in cost-sharing?
    • If cost-sharing applies, what is the exact tuition/education fee?
    • What are the estimated annual costs for other mandatory expenses such as registration, accommodation, meals, student services, etc.?
    • Are there any categories of students who are exempt from these payments?

  3. Students currently enrolled at another university

    • Can a student who is currently enrolled in another Ethiopian public university (for example, AAU, AASTU, Mekelle University, etc.) apply to EPSU for the 2019 E.C. intake?
    • Is there an official transfer admission option for students coming from another university?
    • If transfer is possible, what are the eligibility requirements?
    • Does the student need to withdraw from their current university before applying, or can they apply first and withdraw only after being accepted?
    • Can previously completed courses/credits be transferred and recognized by EPSU?
    • If a student has completed one or more years at another university, can they continue from the corresponding year at EPSU, or are they required to start from freshman year?
    • How is course/credit equivalency evaluated?
    • Is there a minimum CGPA or completed-credit requirement for transfer applicants?
    • Are transfer applicants admitted only when there are vacant places?

  4. Application procedure

    • Where should applicants apply for the 2019 E.C. intake?
    • What is the application deadline?
    • What documents are required?
    • Is there an official application portal or announcement that you can provide?

I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide the official admission announcement, regulations, fee information, and contact details for further questions.

Thank you.

    Based on the university’s website and several other available sources, I found that Ethiopian Public Service University (EPSU) is a public university in Addis Ababa offering programs primarily related to public administration, governance, management, development, urban studies and other public-service fields. Admission requirements may vary by program and admission category. However, I cannot guarantee that all the information available online is current or applicable to the 2019 E.C. (2026/27) regular undergraduate intake.

    I could not find an official admission announcement confirming the required ESSLCE score, eligible Natural or Social Science streams, entrance examinations, application deadline or required documents. I also could not verify the exact tuition fees, cost-sharing arrangements, accommodation and meal expenses, or possible exemptions.

    Similarly, I could not find current official information confirming EPSU’s transfer policy. If you are already enrolled at another university, I recommend that you do not withdraw until EPSU confirms whether transfers are accepted, whether your completed credits can be recognized, and what eligibility requirements apply.

    For accurate and up-to-date information, please use the “Message this university” option on the university’s profile page to contact EPSU directly. You may also check the official EPSU website for the 2019 E.C. admission announcement.
