How to apply for admission at the Bahawalnagar Campus (step by step)
- Wait for the IUB advertisement. Adverts are posted at iub.edu.pk/admissions. In the Spring 2026 cycle, IUB announced on 27 January 2026 that admissions were also open at its Bahawalnagar and Rahim Yar Khan campuses.
- Check the campus-wise program list in the advert. The same program can be offered in Bahawalpur and Bahawalnagar with different seats and merit lists.
- Register on eportal.iub.edu.pk with your CNIC or B-Form, fill in academic marks and choose Bahawalnagar Campus with your programs in order of preference.
- Take the IUB Special Test if your program needs one. IUB Testing Service runs 24 batches a year (apply 1–7 and 14–20 of each month).
- Pay the processing fee challan generated by the portal and submit before the last date.
- Watch the merit lists at eportal.iub.edu.pk/meritlists/ and pay the dues by the deadline printed on the list (payments: eportal.iub.edu.pk/payments).

Fee at the Bahawalnagar Campus
IUB publishes one official fee schedule (“Revised Fee Structure from Fall Session 2025 & Onwards”) on iub.edu.pk, with program-wise first-semester and later-semester totals. The exact amount for your program and campus is the one on the challan the E-Portal issues after selection — check it there rather than relying on figures shared on social media. See our IUB fee structure guide for the official figures by program.
Hostels and student facilities
IUB lists two hostels at Bahawalnagar: Ayesha Hall for girls and Abu Bakar Hall for boys. Seats are limited, so apply for hostel as soon as you are selected. Education-site listings also mention a library, computer and science labs, a cafeteria, sports facilities and transport; IUB’s campus page does not publish routes or charges, so ask the campus administration about transport for your area.
