IUB Ehsaas Scholarship 2026 — Program Overview and Monthly Stipend Amount

The scholarship is a federal need-based programme run through HEC and participating public universities. HEC’s eligibility page does not publish a fixed income limit; need is assessed from the family income and asset information you submit.

Program Detail Information

Administering Body HEC + IUB Financial Aid Office
Other Support Rs 40,000 per year as “other support” (HEC Financial Support page)

According to HEC, the award covers the semester tuition fee as per actual plus Rs 40,000 per year of other support.

Takeaway: Tuition fee as per actual + Rs 40,000 per year (HEC), renewed while academic performance is satisfactory.

Ehsaas Scholarship Eligibility Criteria — Who Qualifies at IUB

HEC’s published eligibility rules: newly admitted students at an HEC-recognised public sector university, admitted on merit, in an HEC-allowed degree programme, who meet the need criteria and provide authentic information. Not eligible: students holding any other scholarship or continuous grant; distance-learning students; students of affiliated colleges (public or private); self-support/self-finance or higher-fee evening programmes; two-year associate, Master’s and BA/BSc-named programmes. The table below lists the practical checks — confirm details in the current call.

Eligibility Criterion Requirement Verification Method
Institution Type Must be enrolled at a public sector HEC university — IUB qualifies ✅ Enrollment verification by IUB
Program Level Newly admitted undergraduate degree (HEC-allowed) — not self-finance, evening, associate, Master’s or BA/BSc programmes Enrollment letter
Family Income Must meet the programme’s need criteria (no fixed limit published on HEC’s page) Income and asset proof as asked in the application form
BISP/Ehsaas Registration Check the current call for any BISP-related condition BISP beneficiary certificate (if applicable)

Nationality Pakistani national — CNIC/B-Form required NADRA CNIC copy
No Other Scholarship Cannot hold any other government scholarship simultaneously Self-declaration affidavit
Semester Standing Satisfactory academic performance for continuation IUB transcript (for renewal)

HEC lists “holding any other scholarship or continuous grant” as a reason for ineligibility, so declare any existing award honestly. False or forged information can lead to disciplinary action, including refund of all scholarship funding.

For continuation, HEC says funding continues if academic performance is satisfactory; the scholarship cannot be transferred to another university, programme or session.

Takeaway: Newly admitted, merit-admitted undergraduate at a public university, meets need criteria, no other scholarship, not self-finance/evening/affiliated college.

CNIC (applicant) Attested photocopy — or B-Form if under 18 NADRA
CNIC (father/guardian) Attested photocopy NADRA

Follow the attestation instructions given in the call or by IUB’s Financial Aid Office.

Takeaway: Collect CNIC/B-form copies, income and asset proof, academic records and your admission proof early — incomplete forms are rejected.

IUB Ehsaas Scholarship Renewal — Annual Conditions and What Causes Suspension

HEC’s rules: funding continues into the next semester or year if academic performance is satisfactory; the award cannot be transferred to another university, programme or session; false or forged information can lead to refund of all funding. Ask IUB’s Financial Aid Office for the exact performance threshold.

Renewal Requirement Standard Consequence of Failure
Minimum CGPA 2.0 on 4.0 scale at end of academic year Scholarship suspended for next year
Fresh Income Documentation New income certificate each year — same UC format Renewal not processed without fresh docs
No Disciplinary Action Clean conduct record — no cheating/misconduct cases Scholarship cancelled — no appeal
On-Time Renewal Application Submit renewal within announced window Missed window = lapse for that year
Income Threshold Check Family income must still be below PKR 45,000 Disqualified if income increased above threshold
Active Enrollment Must be actively enrolled — no study leave during scholarship Scholarship paused during leave period

One situation that surprises many IUB Ehsaas Scholarship holders: taking a semester freeze or study leave pauses the scholarship for that period — it does not extend the scholarship duration to compensate. If your 4-year scholarship period starts in 2026 and you take one semester leave, the scholarship still ends after 8 semesters from 2026 regardless of the gap — you cannot “add back” a frozen semester.

FAQ — IUB Ehsaas Scholarship 2026

What is the IUB Ehsaas Scholarship amount in 2026?

HEC lists the financial support as the semester tuition fee as per actual plus Rs 40,000 per year of other support. The total value therefore depends on your programme’s tuition fee.

What are the ehsaas scholarship eligibility criteria for IUB?

Per HEC: newly admitted on merit to an HEC-allowed undergraduate degree at a public sector university, meeting the need criteria, and not holding any other scholarship. Self-finance/self-support, higher-fee evening, distance-learning, affiliated-college, associate, Master’s and BA/BSc-named programmes are not eligible.

How do I apply for Ehsaas scholarship online at IUB?

Submit the online form at ehsaas.hec.gov.pk while the call is open, then send the printed form and supporting documents to IUB’s Financial Aid Office by the deadline. Both steps are required.

Can I apply for IUB Ehsaas Scholarship and another scholarship at the same time?

You may apply to several programmes, but HEC’s rules make a student who holds any other scholarship or continuous grant ineligible for this award. If you are offered more than one, check each programme’s rules and declare existing awards honestly — false information can lead to refund of all funding.

What is the IUB scholarship for Pharm-D students specifically?

Pharm-D students admitted on merit (not self-finance) can apply under the same HEC rules as other eligible undergraduate programmes. See the IUB Pharm-D Admission 2026 page for complete Pharm-D scholarship details.

When does the IUB Ehsaas Scholarship application open in 2026?

No 2026-27 call specific to IUB was found when this page was checked (28 October 2026). Calls are announced by HEC (ehsaas.hec.gov.pk) and IUB’s Financial Aid Office for newly admitted students — prepare documents early and watch both.

What happens if my grades drop while on the scholarship?

HEC says funding continues only if academic performance is satisfactory. Ask IUB’s Financial Aid Office for the exact threshold and what happens if you fall below it.

Where do I submit the hard copy at IUB?

HEC’s process sends the hard copy to the university’s Financial Aid Office. Check the IUB scholarship notice on iub.edu.pk for the office location and deadline, and submit well before the last day.
