Admission to the Aga Khan Academy Mombasa is based on merit. This is broadly defined as exceptional intellectual potential, leadership, a commitment to learning, strong sense of integrity, and the desire to work towards and instigate positive change.

As part of a network of Academies, we have been established to provide exceptional students from all backgrounds with an outstanding education.

We seek students representing a diverse range of economic, cultural, ethnic and religious backgrounds. We look for students who have the ability and motivation to excel academically and who demonstrate leadership in community service and other co-curricular pursuits.

We are more than just residential schools that strive to give their students a sound academic foundation.

We emphasise the importance of academic excellence while instilling in students a sense of civic responsibility and the desire, ability and commitment to give back to their communities locally and globally.

"In my view, the most important thing a student can learn in any educational institution is the ability to keep on learning." His Highness the Aga Khan (Mombasa, 2007)

Our educational approach measures success not just by academic achievement, but by how students apply what they know to make the world a better place.

The overall educational programme is designed to foster students’ curiosity while providing them with the skills and intellectual confidence to engage with what they do not know and find answers and solutions.
