What is the Honar Scholarship Scheme?

This program’s basically a lifeline for smart kids whose families can't exactly splash cash around. They're not just handing out money for the heck of it either—it's for students who’ve actually got the brains, but maybe not the bank account. What’s the point? Well, for starters, they wanna keep kids from dropping out just because rent’s due or, you know, life happens. Plus, they’re all about leveling the playing field, making sure it’s not just the trust-fund crowd getting ahead. Oh, and let’s be real—tech’s taking over, so they’re throwing in the tools and resources these students need to not get left in the dust. No one wants to be that person who can’t figure out Zoom in 2024.

Phase 2 Overview:

• Unlike the first phase, which primarily focused on public universities, Phase 2 now includes:
• Government colleges
• Technical institutes and TEVTA-registered programs
• Diploma and vocational courses

Eligibility Criteria For Maryam nawaz Honhaar Scholarship

- You gotta be from any district in Punjab. Doesn’t matter which one, as long as you’ve got that Punjab address.
- Age cap’s 22—so if you’re celebrating your 23rd birthday, sorry, this ship’s sailed.
- This scholarship’s for students chilling somewhere between 3rd and 8th semester in their BS, or 2nd to 5th year if you’re grinding through MBBS or BDS.
- If your family’s pulling in more than Rs 300,000 a month, you’re outta luck. Gotta prove it, too—yeah, that means an affidavit (don’t worry, there’s a sample you can snag).
- You have to actually be enrolled in one of the picked disciplines at one of the “chosen ones” universities or colleges.
- Last semester, if you didn’t hit at least a 2.6 GPA, maybe next time. 
- Only for public sector students in Punjab who really need the cash. So, private uni folks, this isn’t for you.
- As for grades: If you’re in a public sector uni or college, you need at least 70% (or the CGPA equivalent) for Sciences, and 65% for Arts. Med and dental college folks, they’ll let you slide with 60% in your annual exams.
- And, yeah, the merit list? All done according to the HEC’s rules for Pakistan’s semester system. Bureaucracy, right?

In short: If you’re young, broke, and scoring decent grades in Punjab’s public sector, this one’s for you.

Now, don’t bother hunting for some fancy portal to stalk your application progress—there isn’t one. Seriously, the government didn’t bother making one. So, if you made the cut (fingers crossed), you’ll get an email or maybe even a classic SMS. That’s your ticket.

Oh, and if you’re new and thinking about joining the scholarship party? 

Registration’s open for Phase II. Just head over to the official website and toss your application in. The instructions are all there, spelled out—probably clearer than your last group chat. Good luck!
