HEC announces USAID-funded Talent Hunt Program (THP) for Medical and Dental Colleges Admission Test (MDCAT) preparation for deserving students. The program is aimed at encouraging and preparing talented male and female students from low-income families who aspire to higher education but cannot apply for admission to top Pakistani universities due to the lack of finances required to enroll for the professional entry test preparation workshops. PKR: 1500/- daily transport and meals allowance is included in the program.
This initiative focuses on identifying bright male and female students with exceptional Matriculation and FA/FSc results ahead of time, investing in them by offering entry test preparation workshops for their admission to medical, engineering, and general universities of Pakistan.
