Higher Education Commission (HEC), Pakistan
A deadline shown here is a research aid. The provider's current call controls the real deadline.
This is one of the most relevant domestic funding routes for Pakistani undergraduates who have the academic ability to enter a participating public-sector institution but cannot comfortably meet the cost. HEC says the award is tied to demonstrated financial need and can continue for the programme duration under the scheme rules.
