Punjab Opens Quota Admissions for Medical Colleges

The Punjab government has announced that applications for quota-based admission to medical and dental colleges will begin on 1 December.

Officials said the University of Health Sciences will process all applications online to ensure a transparent and streamlined admissions system.

For the first time, candidates from other provinces will directly apply for quota seats rather than rely on earlier nomination-based arrangements.

The provincial cabinet approved this policy to create a fairer framework for students seeking MBBS and BDS seats in Punjab.

Reserved seats have been allocated for Islamabad, AJK, Gilgit-Baltistan, Balochistan and former FATA under multiple admission categories.

Applicants must possess valid domicile documents and meet the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council’s eligibility criteria for both programmes.

The online MBBS portal is available at quota-mbbs.uhs.edu.pk, while BDS applications can be submitted through quota-bds.uhs.edu.pk.

UHS has also established a help desk led by Deputy Registrar Yasir Sultan to guide applicants throughout the submission process.
