Quaid-i-Azam University Islamabad has opened applications for the Pakistan Bait-ul-Mal Scholarship 2026 for eligible regular BS and MPhil students. The reported deadline is 24 September 2026.

The scholarship is intended for students who need financial support to continue their studies. Preference is expected for orphans, differently-abled students and highly needy applicants. Students whose family income is up to Rs45,000 per month may apply, while self-finance students are not eligible under the announced conditions.

Applications should be submitted to the Office of Student Financial Assistance before the deadline. QAU’s official financial-assistance information identifies this office as the relevant university contact for scholarships and student aid.

QAU scholarship details

The deadline and semester categories should be checked against the latest QAU notice or form because scholarship instructions can be updated during the application period.

Who Can Apply?

The scholarship is intended for regular BS students enrolled in the 1st, 3rd, 5th or 7th semester and regular MPhil students enrolled in the 1st or 2nd semester.

Can first-semester students apply?

How to Apply

QAU’s scholarship guidance states that students can obtain scholarship forms from university photocopy or book shops, the Student Financial Assistance Office and the QAU website. Completed forms with the required documents should be submitted to the relevant financial-assistance or student-services desk.

1. Obtain the Pakistan Bait-ul-Mal Scholarship form.

2. Read the eligibility conditions carefully.

3. Complete personal, academic and family-income information.

4. Attach the required documents.

5. Check that the information matches official records.

7. Obtain proof of submission.

8. Keep a copy of the complete application.

Students should not send the form to an unrelated QAU department or submit it after the deadline.

Documents Checklist

The current notice should be treated as the final authority for documents. Applicants should prepare the following where applicable:

• Completed scholarship application form.

• Copy of CNIC or B-Form.

• QAU student card or enrolment proof.

• Recent photograph.

• Latest fee voucher.

• Academic transcript or result card.

• Proof of regular admission or enrolment.

• Income certificate or salary slip of the parent or guardian.

• Affidavit or undertaking regarding family income, if required.

• Death certificate for orphan applicants, where applicable.

• Disability certificate for differently-abled applicants.

• Utility bill or other address proof, if requested.

• Any document listed on the official form.

Do not attach documents that contain inconsistent income or family information. The university may reject an application that cannot be verified.

Common Reasons for Rejection

Applications may be rejected or excluded if they are:

• Submitted after 24 September 2026.

• Incomplete or unsigned.

• Missing the required income proof.

• Submitted by a self-finance student.

• Filed by a student outside the eligible semester.

• Missing the QAU enrolment or fee record.

• Containing false or inconsistent information.

• Submitted without required supporting documents.

• Sent to the wrong office.

• Illegible or damaged.

Late applications should not be assumed to receive consideration, even if the student meets the financial criteria.

How Selection Works

Pakistan Bait-ul-Mal scholarships are need-based, but the final award is not automatic. QAU may review:

• Family income.

• Number of dependants.

• Parent or guardian employment.

• Orphan or disability status.

• Academic progress.

• Current enrolment category.

• Documents submitted.

• Available scholarship funds.

QAU’s scholarship information states that scholarships are awarded under prescribed university rules or donor agreements.

Students should continue meeting their fee and academic obligations until the scholarship is officially approved. Submitting an application does not by itself cancel a fee deadline.

Where to Submit the Form

QAU’s Office of Scholarship and Financial Assistance is located in the Main Administration Block, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad. The office lists these contact details:

• Phone: +92-51-9064-4091

• Office hours: 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Monday to Friday

QAU’s scholarship guidance also refers to the Student Financial Assistance Office and student-services front desk for submission. Applicants should confirm the exact submission counter when collecting the form.

Deadline Action Plan

Students should complete the following before 24 September 2026:

• Confirm regular or self-finance status.

• Verify the eligible semester.

• Collect income and academic documents.

• Fill in the form without overwriting important fields.

• Sign every required section.
