I don't think that habib is all sunshine and perfect uni.
List some downsides and things to know about.. anyone studying there please share something.
All this marketing, and fees so expensive that one would consider to go for LUMS instead (though habib gives more scholarships)
Most of the people don't even mention habib in top uni list as if habib is an abandoned child., but why habib students or someone affiliated with habib always brags about it. 😭
What's with this top class faculty they always come up with?
Heard they provide student exchange program, leading students to Stanford, Berkeley etc.
I don't think most students will end up there but only outperforming ones.
Selected for DSSE today with 80% scolarship.
Selected in IBA with 100% Aid
Selected in SDSB LUMS, waiting for FA Decision

I never thought I'd be writing this post.
I'm the son of a security guard. We rent. Live paycheck to paycheck. I took a gap year that I thought was completely wasted — depression, no structure, no progress. I applied to Habib last year and got rejected.
This year, I applied again to both IBA and Habib.
Here's where things stand:
IBA:
Habib:
I know math is the foundation — linear algebra, calculus, probability, statistics. IBA's math program is exactly that. But Habib's HU TOPS (if I get it) would be 4 years of stability, no annual reapplication, no donor hunting. That peace of mind is hard to ignore.
But Habib doesn't have a standalone math program. CS/CE is great, but I worry about tools becoming outdated. Math feels "pristine" — same 30 years ago, same 30 years from now.
I also worry about the need-based nature of IBA's aid. If I start earning or my father's situation improves, IBA will reduce my aid. Habib's HU TOPS (if merit-based) wouldn't do that.
I'm leaning toward IBA because math is my heart. But the stability of a 4-year locked scholarship at Habib is very tempting.
I need perspective from people who have been through either program. How hard is the annual FA reapplication at IBA? Is Habib's CS program actually math-heavy enough for someone aiming for AI research?
Also — if Habib offers HU TOPS (100% for 4 years) — would you still choose IBA Math?
Thank you. This is the hardest decision of my life.
is there a gc for class of 2030 accepted students? would love to get the link!
I applied to the March series and got rejected after the interview. Although I have good marks in Matric and Fsc , but dont have good extracurricular activities. I applied for the CS major in HUTOPs. I need advice from you guys. Is it worth it to apply for Round 2, and will I be able to get a good scholarship, or should I apply next year?
Has anyone from the national board got 100% scholarship?
So I’ve applied for Habib university 80% scholarship un computer and I’ve to prepare for the test, I’ve heard English essay part is difficult and what about maths part? Tough hoti hai ya nhi?

So I already paid the admission fee and security deposit but I am supposed to submit a copy of paid receipt of the vouchers, is there anything else I am supposed to submit. Also do I have to submit before deadline?
There are three ways to get into Habib 🥰
Be good at studies 😛
Have some great connections with HU Donars 🤩
Be gay 😩
I'm an A level student and didn't do the following o level subjects: PST, URDU and ISLAMIYAT. Let's say I was accepted by IBA, can I do these 3 subjects in the first semester and then once the result comes out, get my equivalency made and submit it to the university?
Hey guys, HU is asking me for utility bills and financial contribution details. What could be the reason?
I got into Habib for CS (with an 80% scholarship) and into LUMS for Econ, Data, and CS. I'm trying to decide which would be the better option.
Habib's liberal arts curriculum appeals to me because it wouldn't restrict me to CS alone and would also help me develop my soft skills. However, I'm not sure whether LUMS offers something similar in that regard.
On the other hand, LUMS has a stronger alumni network and a better overall reputation. My primary goal is to pursue a Master's abroad (idk I might change my mind later), and I don't have much information about Habib's international placement record.
Any guidance on this would be greatly appreciated :)
I’m applying for Computer Engineering with mid-tier O/A Level grades (A and Bs in O levels, Bs and C in As) but my extracurriculars are essentially carrying my profile. I have a couple of international accomplishments in mind sports, national-level debate awards, and have attended international camps. I’ve also founded multiple forums and societies, held major leadership roles (council and societies), and have a solid portfolio of STEM projects and community service.
How do I structure my application so that the admissions office focuses on my builder and leadership potential rather than just the transcript? I’m worried the grades might overshadow the fact that I’ve been operating at a high level elsewhere. Should I make up a portfolio on some external platform and attach it somewhere in my application? Any advice from people who got in with mid-grades and heavy ECAs would be huge, Thank you sm.
Edit: i want to get a good percentage of scholarship 😭🙏
can someone pls share all the info regarding international uni placement program for Computing fields
should i leave fast karachi after 2 sem and come to habib?
they're giving me 100 scholarship but that's not the important thing. The important thing is if it's worth it?
Hello everyone, I am from national board. I gave my test on 3 march and Interview on 16 April( Interview was late as f). Recently I have heard that all the pending decision of all applicants from any series who has yet to receive a decision will come in this week is this true or just a false rumor.
I have been studying for other universities as well but this statement has f uped my mind. I constantly check my email and portal for admissions decision
My friend has been accepted in the CS program at habib and was able to secure 100% scholarship. I too have been accepted in the CS waiting for the fee package.
Both of us are concerned whether doing CS from habib is a much better option than doing it from fast karachi, Iba and nust khi.
If there are somethings you think that make habib a better choice please let me know as well.
Or if there's something that you think habib is missing that is offered by other options i'd love to hear it as well.
I would appreciate that rather than just stating your thoughts you could tell me the reasons too.
So guys I want to study in Habib university but I’m facing an issue. I did my o levels abroad and a levels in pak and because of that I didn’t do PST, Urdu and islamiyat. If I want to take admission in any uni in pak I’ll need to do those 3 subjects but that would mean taking a gap year and I’ve already taken one before. I never once studied Urdu in my life, I don’t know how to read it or write it so even if I take another gap year and do those subjects, Urdu will be extremely hard for me. What should I do?
