This year marks a significant change in the university’s admission process. After a gap of eight years, the National University has returned to an admission test system for student enrollment. From the 2015-16 academic year until last year, admissions were based on students’ SSC and HSC Grade Point Averages (GPA). The last admission tests were held in the 2014-15 academic year.
The admission test was conducted using the Multiple Choice Question (MCQ) format. The test consisted of a 100-mark question paper, and students were given one hour to complete it. The pass mark for the test is 35. For each correct answer, a student receives one point, with no penalty for incorrect answers.
The final merit list will be calculated based on a total of 200 marks. The score from the MCQ test will be combined with 40% of the student’s SSC GPA (including the fourth subject) and 60% of their HSC GPA.
According to the latest annual report from the University Grants Commission (UGC), 881 colleges across the country offer honours courses under the National University. This includes 264 government and 617 private colleges. In the 2022-23 academic year, there were 436,285 available seats for first-year honours students.
For the 2023-24 academic year, there were 421,990 seats available in the first half of the Degree (Pass Course) program, which is taught in 1,969 colleges.
The university has also outlined its quota system. A maximum of eight seats in each subject will be reserved for various quotas. This includes three seats for the children of freedom fighters, one for indigenous students, one for persons with disabilities, and three for the children of National University employees (ward quota).
