Punjab University Releases 2nd Merit List 2026 for Undergraduate Admissions

The University of the Punjab has officialized the release of its regular undergraduate second merit list for the 2026–27 academic year. Thousands of applicants across Pakistan who applied for BS 1st Semester and BS 5th Semester morning programs can now verify their status through the official admission portal.

With the second list now live, successful applicants face a tight deadline to lock in their seats before the university moves on to subsequent rounds.

Crucial Deadlines & Dues Submission

Applicants who find their names on the newly released merit list must fulfill all administrative requirements promptly.

• Dues Payment Deadline: August 17, 2026 (within standard banking hours)

• Required Actions: Submit original documents, complete departmental verification, and deposit the required admission fees.

Delaying fee submission will result in the immediate forfeiture of the admission offer, and the seat will automatically be offered to the next candidate in line during subsequent rounds.
