Rolling or university-specific deadlines
- Benazir Undergraduate Scholarship Project (formerly Ehsaas Undergraduate Scholarship)
No official 2026-27 call found as of 2026-10-10 and the previous round's closing date could not be verified on an official source. HEC historically opens the ehsaas.hec.gov.pk portal in the autumn; watch HEC and your university's Financial Aid Office.
- Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility (Semester Exchange to Europe)
No single deadline. Each partnership sets its own internal call, usually a few months before the semester starts.
- Global Korea Scholarship (GKS) – Undergraduate Degrees
The 2027 Embassy Track opened 15 Sep 2026; Pakistan's embassy sets its own submission date (usually about 3 weeks after opening; check the Embassy of Korea in Pakistan notice). University Track deadlines vary by university through November 2026. Final results 7 Jan 2027.
- HEC Need-Based Scholarship Program
Deadlines are set by each participating university's Financial Aid Office, usually early in the Fall semester (e.g. COMSATS Lahore set 15 October 2026 for Fall 2026). Check your own university's notice.
- Ihsan Trust Qarz-e-Hasna (Interest-Free Education Loan)
Rolling; collection windows are set by each partner university's Financial Aid Office and the Ihsan Trust portal.
- JASSO Student Exchange Support Program (Scholarship for Study in Japan under Agreement)
No central deadline. Each Japanese university sets internal deadlines for its exchange intake.
- NL Scholarship (formerly Holland Scholarship)
Institution-specific deadlines (commonly 1 February or 1 May 2027). Applications for 2027–28 normally open around 1 November 2026.
- NUST Need-Based Financial Aid (NFAAF)
NFAAF deadline equals the NUST online admission form deadline for your entry series (NET 2027 series dates on ugadmissions.nust.edu.pk); late NFAAFs are not considered.
- OGDCL Need-Based Scholarships Program through HEC
Per participating university; no central deadline published. New batches depend on OGDCL CSR approval each year.
- Pakistan Bait-ul-Mal Educational Financial Assistance
Rolling/per-university: each university announces its own PBM collection window (e.g. SBBU closed 17 April 2025). Applications can also be taken to the PBM district office.
- PEEF Undergraduate (Graduation Level) Scholarships
Set per partner university after PEEF allocates slots (NUST notes notices tentatively around September-October; other universities collect forms through early in the calendar year). Special Quota applications are online with PEEF.
