From shortlist to application.

Use the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ annual BDGS call. Where the instructions require an additional UBD or UTB application, complete that as well.

Before you commit
The scholarship has level-specific age limits and does not cover every qualification. The reference reports no work permission for student-pass holders, so budget a self-funded course without assumed wages.
  1. Identify programmes that accept your qualification. Ask admissions about equivalence if your Pakistani award is not clearly listed.
  2. Read the individual course requirements and deadline. Confirm language evidence, prerequisites and any selection test.
  3. Prepare your academic records, references and personal statement. Follow the institution’s instructions for certified documents.
  4. Submit through the university or its designated national portal. Keep your account, receipts and application number.
  5. After an offer, check the student visa procedure for applicants residing in Pakistan and prepare the required financial evidence.
