Ghotki, in upper Sindh near the Punjab border, is served by the Virtual University of Pakistan through its local campus network. VU, headquartered in Lahore, was set up by the federal government in 2002 as a public, HEC-recognised online university with support campuses in well over a hundred cities. This page explains how the model works in Ghotki (Sindh).
About the Campus
The district, which includes Mirpur Mathelo and Daharki, has limited public university options, so VU’s online BS and associate degree programs fill a real gap. Students use the Ghotki campus for admission guidance, internet and computer access, and examination arrangements.
VU is a federally chartered public university built for online education. Faculty record lectures that are streamed through the LMS and broadcast on VU’s TV channels; students interact with tutors through discussion boards. City campuses are not teaching colleges – they provide labs, admission support and exam logistics.
Campuses in Ghotki may be either VU-run campuses or Private Virtual Campuses (PVCs) operated by affiliated private colleges. VU keeps an official, province-wise campus directory at vu.edu.pk/pvcs showing each campus name, code and address. Use that directory to find the current Ghotki campus nearest to you.

Admissions at this Campus
All admissions are processed centrally by VU’s Admission Section in Lahore. Applicants from Ghotki apply online at vu.edu.pk/apply, selecting a local campus on the form; the campus then serves as their base for lab access and examinations. VU warns applicants to pay the processing fee and semester dues only through its official banking channels. Admission sessions open twice a year, in Fall and Spring. Full details are on our VU Undergraduate Admissions 2026-27 page.
Facilities
VU’s official pages do not publish facility details for each individual campus. In general, a VU campus or PVC is expected to provide a computer lab with internet access for watching lectures and attempting online assessments, a notice board, and staff for admission and examination support. Hostels are not part of the VU model; confirm what the Ghotki campus offers before relying on it.
