What Does it Take to Get In? Eligibility and Merit Scene

Each program may have slightly different criteria, so it is best to check the exact requirements of your chosen field from the official website of IIUI. But here are some general guidelines that will give you an idea:

• Undergraduate Programs (BS): For most BS programs you need a minimum of 50% to 60% marks in Intermediate (HSSC) or equivalent.
• Engineering Programs: For engineering, an entrance test is mostly necessary – so start preparing for it from the very beginning!
• Graduate Programs (MS/MPhil): You should have relevant 16-year education, with at least 2.50/4.00 CGPA. Some programs also require GAT (General) test.
• Doctoral Programs (PhD): For PhD, a relevant MS/MPhil degree is required with minimum 3.00/4.00 CGPA, and a good score in GRE or HAT General test is also necessary.

How is merit made?

For undergraduate programs, merit is mostly calculated on SSC + HSSC marks. Where an entrance test is required, the test score also has a strong weightage.

Let’s Talk About Fees and Financial Aid

IIUI is a public university, which usually means the fees are quite affordable compared to private universities. The tuition fee for each semester can range from approx PKR 30,000 to 113,200 – depending on which program you are applying to.

And if you are coming from outside or are staying far away from home, hostel facilities are also available – so don’t worry about accommodation.

But the thing that really touches the heart is that IIUI is really concerned about financially deserving students. Here you get different types of need-based and merit-based scholarships – like HEC Scholarship, Benazir Scholarship, and many more options.

So even if it is an issue of money, please don’t give up your dream just because of this – definitely apply, there is a full chance of getting support!
