The PEEF Scholarship 2026 is one of Pakistan’s largest and most trusted government scholarship programs — launched by the Punjab Educational Endowment Fund to help talented but financially struggling students continue their education. This page lists only details confirmed from official or university notices.
Quick answer (October 29, 2026): In the 2025-26 undergraduate cycle, PEEF scholarships were offered through universities to students with a Punjab domicile who passed Intermediate in 2025 from a Punjab board or FBISE with at least 60% marks, with annual household income of Rs 720,000 or less (IBA Karachi notice). Universities collected applications in early 2026 (for example, IBA’s deadline was 30 March 2026). The 2026-27 call for students who passed Intermediate in 2026 has not been announced yet; based on last year it is expected in early 2027 through your university’s financial aid office.
