Hello everyone,

Would you recommend studying abroad in Pakistan?

Every year, 4 million young people from all over the world choose to study abroad for one semester or a full academic year. Would you encourage them to come and study in Pakistan?

In your opinion, what are the most prestigious colleges and universities in the country/area? Are these free of charge? If not, are tuition fees expensive? Are there many foreign students enrolled in these schools/colleges/universities? What is the main language of instruction at the university?

Thank you in advance for sharing!
Priscilla

There are many reputable institutes in Pakistan depends on what you are planning to major in. There are a lot of foreign students studying in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan. Some of the most prestigious institutes in Pakistan are IBA (Karachi), LUMS (Lahore), GIK, NCA (Lahore), UET. Mode of instruction is mostly English. If you have any more queries feel free to ask. Good luck with your future endeavours!

Pakistan has traditionally been a training ground for lots of nationalities in the past.

In 70s and 80s one could find Engineers and Doctors coming to Pakistan from Jordan, Egypt, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and lots of African countries.

Pakistan's military academy and police offers short term and long term courses.

Pakistan is the largest Islamic teaching place in the world, there are thousands of madrassas and mosques where kids and adult students learn basic to advanced courses.聽
