The Oil and Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL) has opened applications for a fully funded intermediate scholarship program, offering students a chance to pursue their studies at Forman Christian College University (FCCU) for the 2026–2028 academic session.

Finding a fully funded intermediate scholarship is a rare opportunity for students looking to bypass the financial burden of high-quality private education in Pakistan. This initiative is designed to support high-achieving students who might otherwise struggle to afford the tuition and boarding costs at a premier institution like FCCU.

Who qualifies for the OGDCL scholarship?

Before you begin the application process, it is vital to check your eligibility. The OGDCL and FCCU partnership focuses on merit-based support, but it also considers financial necessity.

  • You must have passed your Matriculation or O-Levels examination.
  • High academic standing in previous examinations is mandatory to compete for these limited seats.
  • The program is primarily aimed at students from specific regions where OGDCL operates, though you should check the official portal for specific district requirements.
  • Proof of low household income or financial hardship is usually required to qualify for the 'fully funded' component.

How to apply for the program

If you meet the criteria, you must follow the official application procedure strictly. Missing a document or a deadline will lead to an automatic rejection.

  1. Visit the official FCCU admissions portal or the OGDCL CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) website.
  2. Fill out the application form specifically designated for the OGDCL-sponsored scholarship.
  3. Attach your academic transcripts, CNIC/B-Form, and income certificates of your parents or guardians.
  4. Submit the completed application before the announced deadline.

Keep in mind that this is a competitive process. Ensure all your contact information, especially your mobile number and email, is accurate, as the university will use these to send interview calls or test dates.

What to watch next

After submitting your application, monitor the FCCU and OGDCL websites regularly for the list of shortlisted candidates. If you are selected, you will likely be called for a written test followed by an interview. Prepare for these by reviewing your core subjects from the Matric/O-Level syllabus, as the selection is heavily merit-based. Don't rely on third-party websites for status updates; always verify information through official channels to avoid scams or misinformation.
