Entry Test and Merit
MUL conducts its own competitive examination for new undergraduates; the official scholarship page refers to a competitive exam held in December/January and to composite marks that combine intermediate and exam results. Engineering, pharmacy, nursing and law admissions follow PEC, Pharmacy Council, nursing council and HEC LAT rules respectively. No weightage is published. See the MUL entry test guide.
Fee Structure
The official website provides a Fee Calculator and Fee Packages page rather than a static table, and no figures appear on the pages we could access. Use the calculator on the official website or contact the Admissions Office for the current semester fee of your program.

Why Students Choose MUL
Students choose Minhaj University for the sheer breadth of programs under one roof, a scholarship and concession system that reaches well beyond top scorers, and a campus culture rooted in the Minhaj-ul-Quran educational network. Applicants who want published fee tables should use the official calculator early, since MUL does not print a single fee sheet.
