This page covers scholarship options available to Matric and Intermediate students across Punjab — government and private programs that reduce tuition or provide a stipend based on merit or financial need.
Punjab Educational Endowment Fund (PEEF)
PEEF is Punjab’s main government scholarship program for students from low-income households, covering Matric, Intermediate, and undergraduate levels based on academic merit and family income. Applications typically open after result announcements each year — check peef.org.pk for current eligibility criteria and deadlines.
Other Scholarship Sources
- HEC Need-Based Scholarships — mainly for undergraduate and higher levels, but worth knowing about ahead of your Intermediate result.
- School and college-specific scholarships — many institutions offer merit-based fee waivers for top-scoring students; check directly with your school or college administration.
- Provincial and district government programs — vary by district; your school office is usually the fastest way to learn what’s currently available.
Before You Apply
Most scholarship applications require your latest result card, so check your Matric or Intermediate result first, then gather your CNIC/B-Form, income certificate (if needed), and school verification documents ahead of time — these are the most common bottleneck in scholarship applications.
