The study aimed to evaluate the level and determinants of contraceptive utilization among students at Kampala International University, Western Campus in Bushenyi District, Uganda. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted using online questionnaires and Microsoft Excel v.2019. The majority of respondents were Pentecostals, single, and not formally employed. 24.48% were currently using any contraceptive method, with 69.25% being well-informed about different methods. Barriers to contraceptive utilization included ease of use, affordability, availability, and absence of side effects. Barriers included lack of information about contraceptive methods, rural setting, partner reluctance, and religious constraints. Contraceptive utilization is low among female students at KIU-WC, and stakeholders such as the clergy, women's partners, the university, and the municipal council must work together to address these barriers and address the unmet need for contraceptives among women.
