Yusra Medical and Dental College

Yusra Medical and Dental College was a private medical college in Zaraj Housing Society, Islamabad. PMDC recognised it in 2010. The Federal Government terminated that recognition with effect from 14 December 2018, on the council's recommendation. ²³

The Islamabad High Court wound up the operating company on 30 October 2024. The judgment records that the company can no longer run the college or enrol students. ³

The PMDC private medical register and the PMDC private dental register do not list the college. We checked both registers on 14 November 2026. ⁴⁵

Do not apply to this college and do not pay it. A college that is absent from the PMDC registers cannot put a graduate on the medical register. ⁴⁵

We keep this page as a closure record. Old links stay useful, and a searcher finds the termination record instead of an old advertisement. Our dataset marks the college closed and lists no seats.

A partnership deed dated 20 December 2008 established the college. The High Court judgment records that PMDC recognised the college in 2010. ³ A related directory history records the 2010 registration year. ²

PMDC stopped the college's admissions for the 2014-15 year over facility deficiencies. Dawn reported the order in January 2014 coverage of that cycle. ² The council acted again in February 2016. It stopped admissions for 2016-17 and gave the management twenty days to fix faculty and facility gaps. ¹

In September 2018 the council's executive committee recommended closure. Dawn reported that about 1,000 students of Yusra and Continental Medical College were told to submit college preferences for adjustment. ²

On 14 December 2018 the Federal Government accepted the adjustment scheme and terminated the recognition. The judgment sets the effective date and quotes Section 22 of the then PMDC Ordinance. ³

The company challenged the termination notification. The Islamabad High Court dismissed that challenge. ³

Shareholder disputes followed the closure. The court record describes two shareholder groups, an SECP investigation and unpaid salaries and fee refunds. ³

On 30 October 2024 the Islamabad High Court wound up the company. It found the sole business of the company was the college, and that business was no longer lawful. ³

No closing merit applies to this college. A closing aggregate describes seats that a recognised intake fills in a live admission cycle. This college has had no recognised intake since 14 December 2018. ³

Our dataset carried a self-finance merit series for 2022 to 2025. That series postdates the termination and could not describe a recognised intake. We removed it on 14 November 2026. ³⁴

Treat any Yusra closing-merit figure you find elsewhere as unverified. Ask for the admitting university's own merit list before you trust any number. ⁴

Our record attached the 450-bed Yusra General Hospital to the college. The hospital stood beside the campus in Zaraj Housing Scheme.

PMDC's 2018 closure decision rested in part on hospital deficiencies. Dawn reported that essential departments were not operational and that most beds stood vacant. ¹

The college's clinical teaching ended with the recognition. The court judgment treats the college business as ended. ³

We hold no verified record of the hospital's current status. Treat any current claim about the hospital with the same care as the college itself.

The campus address on record reads Talha Road, Zaraj Housing Society, Sector A, Islamabad, off the Islamabad Expressway.

The site carried lecture halls, laboratories, a dissection hall, student residencies and a library while the college ran.

The company that owned the campus is in winding up. The court appointed an Official Liquidator to collect and apply the assets. ³

We hold no verified record of any current academic activity on the site. ⁴

PMDC recognised the college in 2010. Dawn reported the registration year in its closure coverage. ²

The Federal Government terminated the recognition with effect from 14 December 2018, under Section 22 of the then PMDC Ordinance. The Islamabad High Court record states the date and the section. ³

The PMDC private medical register does not list the college. We checked it on 14 November 2026. ⁴

The PMDC private dental register does not list the college either. We checked it the same day. ⁵

SZABMU continues to publish professional examination results that name the college. A 2024-25 result notice on the university site covers its MBBS professional examinations. ⁶ That notice serves students already on the university's books. It is not a recognition statement.

If you hold a Yusra degree or a transfer certificate, check it with PMDC before any licensing step. The council keeps the recognition and student-adjustment records. ³⁴

The official domain carried no admission notice on our October check. ⁷ The winding-up order, not the website, states what the company may still do. ³

While the college ran, it taught the five-year MBBS course and advertised a four-year BDS course. The batch size on record ran to 100 students a year.

Student residence stood on the campus record beside the laboratories and the library. The 2016 inspection found the standards below the council's minimum for that intake. ¹

The last MBBS classes ended with the 2018 termination. The adjustment scheme moved enrolled students to other recognised colleges. ²³
