About Garrison University Lahore
Garrison University Lahore is a private university established in Lahore, Punjab under the umbrella of the Fauji Foundation, a leading welfare organisation associated with the Pakistan Armed Forces. The university was established to provide quality higher education — particularly in health sciences — for both military personnel families and civilian students in Punjab. Garrison University Lahore is fully recognised by the Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan and regulated by the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) for its clinical programmes, making it a credible choice for students seeking health sciences degrees in Lahore's competitive private university sector.
The university's health sciences portfolio includes the flagship MBBS (5 years) and BDS (Dentistry, 4 years) programmes at Garrison University Medical College, assessed under the PMDC annual percentage examination system. Allied health undergraduate programmes — including BS Physiotherapy, BS Medical Laboratory Technology (MLT), BS Nursing, and BS Radiology and Imaging Technology — follow the standard HEC 4.0 grading scale on a credit-hour semester system. The university also offers BS Computer Science and BBA (Hons) for students interested in technology and business disciplines. This calculator is configured for all HEC 4.0 programmes (allied health BS, BS CS, and BBA).
Garrison University operates from its Lahore campus with access to affiliated teaching hospitals for clinical training. The university's Fauji Foundation backing provides institutional stability and a clear mission of serving the educational needs of Pakistan's armed forces community and the broader civilian population. Students at Garrison University benefit from a disciplined academic environment, structured timetables, and small class sizes that enable more direct faculty-student interaction than larger public institutions.
Important: MBBS vs Allied Health Grading
Garrison University MBBS and BDS programmes use the PMDC annual percentage examination system, not the HEC 4.0 GPA scale. This calculator is specifically for allied health BS programmes, BS CS, and BBA at Garrison University that operate on a credit-hour semester system. MBBS students should refer to their professional examination percentage results.
