History

What the merit trend shows
UHS admits students to Punjab private colleges on one open merit list and an overseas quota. The admission policy for the 2026-27 session defines no self-finance category for the private sector. 7
UHS builds the aggregate from three parts: 10% of SSC marks, 40% of HSSC marks and 50% of MDCAT marks 4. The UHS document sets the same formula for every private medical college in Punjab 4. The Rawalpindi row and the Lahore row of the same group use one merit formula. Read each row as the score of the last applicant admitted.
Compare sessions with care. The MDCAT mark scale changed between 2021 and 2025, so the same percentage does not mean the same raw score in every row.
