FJWU’s Admission Criteria set undergraduate merit as 70% FA/FSc + 30% entry test: NAT-I or the HEC test, or LAT for LLB. For Fall 2026, FJWU requires a test only for its engineering departments (Software and Electronic Engineering; NAT-I, UET, NUST, ETEA or HEC USAT, minimum 33%). Other bachelor’s programmes need no test, so your Intermediate marks decide your merit.
Calculate your FJWU merit
Free · instant · no loginEnter your FA/FSc marks against their total (Part-I against 550 if your result is awaited). Enter your test score as a percentage of its total.
What Entry test score do you need?
Set your target merit and we work backwards from your Matric and FSc marks to the Entry test score you need. The grid shows your merit at every score from 50% to 100% of the paper.
FJWU Merit Formula 2026
| Programme | FJWU rule | Test |
|---|---|---|
| Software Engineering, Electronic Engineering (PEC) | 70% FA/FSc + 30% entry test | NAT-I, UET, NUST, ETEA or HEC USAT, minimum 33% (Fall 2026) |
| LLB (BS Law) | 70% FA/FSc + 30% LAT | HEC LAT, minimum 50 |
| All other bachelor’s programmes | Merit on Intermediate marks | Not required in Fall 2026 |
The 70/30 weightage comes from FJWU’s “Admission Criteria and Selection Procedure”. That page also lists NAT-I as the test for every undergraduate programme. FJWU’s Fall 2026 advertisement (3 July 2026) narrowed this: “The test is not required for other programs/departments of Bachelor’s Programs.” It gave no new weights, so for those programmes your Intermediate result is what matters.

Common FJWU Merit Mistakes
- Taking NAT for a programme that no longer needs it. In Fall 2026 only engineering (and LAT for LLB) need a test.
- Applying to engineering with 2nd division. Software and Electronic Engineering need 60% (1st division).
- Scoring under the test minimum. Engineering needs at least 33% in the test; LLB needs 50 in LAT.
- Treating the estimate as final. Only FJWU’s merit lists are official.
Frequently asked questions
What is the FJWU merit formula?
70% FA/FSc + 30% entry test, according to FJWU’s Admission Criteria. In Fall 2026 the test is required only for engineering (and LAT for LLB), so other programmes depend on Intermediate marks.
