The Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan has recently announced the introduction of the Undergraduate Admission Test (UAT) as a mandatory criterion for university admissions. This test is aimed at students who have completed their intermediate education and wish to pursue undergraduate studies in various disciplines. To qualify for admission, students must achieve a minimum score of 50% on the UAT, which will cover seven categories including engineering, medical, computer science, and commerce.
Scheduled to commence in July, the UAT application process is currently open on the HEC website until June 30. The HEC emphasizes that the implementation of this test is intended to promote fairness in university admissions across Pakistan. By establishing a standardized assessment, the HEC aims to uphold consistent academic standards nationwide, ensuring that all students have equitable access to higher education opportunities.
