Guys the eclections r on 11th may, and govt has announced holidays frm 9th onwards, so no list is coming out on 10th!!

Well, ****. :')

 

[ibadsiddiqi]

Good point. And isn't Eid sometime in August?

yep eid will be around the 10th i think..results are coming out on the 13th...the few days before leaving for lums will be pretty hectic..and we also have to submit an attested copy of our results within 3 days

A few questions answered:

1) How to know whether I am accepted?
A) Check your status online, on the admissions website. You will also get an offer letter through courier.

2) I got into SDSB, is my major ACF?
A) No. Since the introduction of a new major (Management Science) at LUMS, you will wait for a year and then decide your major. <probably>

3) I got into MGSHSS, is my major Economics?
A) No. All humanities and social science majors decide their majors at the end of the first year. There are limited seats for each major and priorities will be decided on your first year CGPA. Usually, the cut off for Economics is 3.0 but this level is expected to rise. The priority is usually Economics, Econ-Pol, Pol and SS (Socio, Anthro, Phil etc)

4) What is O-Week?
A) After you get into LUMS, there will be an orientation week right after Eid and just before the start of regular classes. Don't miss this!

5) Why is life at LUMS the best?
A) In my opinion, it is due to the endless opportunities you get while at LUMS. So many societies to join, so many mega-events, trips, exchanges and what not. The study part is definitely rigorous, but everything balances out eventually! So make sure you take part in these activities as much as you can!

no you have to get them attested by british council. they take rs.1000 per certificate.

 

[Hassan Kazmi]

Wow. In our time we just showed them the provisional results and that was fine =/

Okay i just checked and we're supposed to submit a copy of our results within 3 working days of the announcement ( stamped by the school) and then by the 30th of August we have to submit an attested copy of our OLevel and Alevel certificates (attested by the British Council) and then by the 5th of september we have to submit our original certificates for verification...so yeaa lambi khwaari..but its definitely worth it

Why so much checking though? :S

Great. The British Council hates me -__-

 

[ibadsiddiqi]

Their way of being thorough..i dont know why they want to verify the validity of the results so much..if they want the british council to attest the results then there is no reason to check the original certificates as well

 

[TAHA95]

do you have any idea when that will happen? classes start on the 21st so im guessing it will be before that

sorry. no idea

Eh, can't really argue with them, now can we? Looks like we'll all be in Hell after the result instead of partying

 

[asadshabbir]

Oh, now i got it. I thought you were a german national. So, yeah that pretty much clears it. Lived here for a while means you are in pakistan now?

Nope, lived here for over a year. Was in other countries before that. Havent ever lived in Pakistan. Hopefully will though if LUMS takes me :s

yea but given the fact that in exchange for a week of hell we're getting 4 years of partying..im not gonna complain

 

[maryam202]

Did anyone get an acceptance/rejection letter from LUMS in the first week of May?

 

[reesh]

yea but given the fact that in exchange for a week of hell we're getting 4 years of partying..im not gonna complain

Hahahaha Partying and studying. My mom is already reminding me that I need to study when I go there. Parents are weird. When I had no life in O levels, my parents told me to make friends. When I DID make friends in AS, they said that I was partying too much and needed to study (still managed to get 4 A's though ;D ).
A friend of mine went to LUMS a few weeks ago and said that there was some party at like 12 am

Stop worrying. You'll get in, IA. Try calling them again or emailing them and confirming if they got your transcripts?
OH! Better idea. Tell them you need to know whether to apply for visa or something. And that if they tell you late, you may not be able to come. Koi story banao

Okay Guys This Is Way off the topic But Please Pray For Imran Khan. Pakistan needs him more than ever right now..
