Abstract
Higher education in Kenya has had strides and trends. Among them, reforms to improve the standards and quality of higher education. The sector faces multiple challenges; lack of adequate resources, a mismatch between industry needs and graduate skills, budget shortfalls and massive universities expansions. These challenges hurt the quality and relevance of higher education. In order to propose solutions, two key issues were discussed: financial sustainability and quality/relevance of higher education. The paper collected secondary data and government reports and using a critical review, it analyzed the role of financial sustainability, quality, and relevance in improving higher education in Kenya. The paper concludes with policy recommendations on higher education reforms, options, and developments, all aimed at bolstering quality education in Kenya.
