The Shaikh Ayaz University Announces First Merit List for Spring 2027 Undergraduate Admissions
SHIKARPUR, 10 November 2026 — The Directorate of Admissions, The Shaikh Ayaz University (SAUS), Shikarpur, has published the First Merit List for undergraduate admissions, Fall 2026. 265 candidates have been offered seats: 249 fresh first-year candidates and 16 lateral entry candidates. The programmes are BS Computer Science, BS Information Technology, BBA, BS Commerce, B.Ed, BS English and BS Mathematics.
The list ranks every candidate who sat the SAUS entry test on a single merit score that combines academic record and test result. Seats were allocated in order of merit, against each candidate’s programme preferences, under Open Merit.
How to check the list
The list is available at admissions.saus.edu.pk/merit-list. It shows each candidate’s merit number, application number, Test ID, name, allotted programme and merit score, grouped by programme. Copies are also displayed on the notice boards of the Admissions Office. Candidates can also sign in to the candidate portal to see their own result.
What selected candidates must do
Selected candidates must pay the semester fee by 21 November, 2026 to keep their seat. A seat whose fee is unpaid by then is offered to the next candidate on merit.
- Sign in to the candidate portal and download the offer letter and the semester fee challan. Each offer letter carries a verification QR code.
- Pay the challan at any UBL bank branch.
- Upload the paid challan on the portal. The seat is confirmed once the Admissions Office verifies the payment.
- Bring original documents to the Admission Facilitation Centre on campus for verification. These are the CNIC or B-Form, domicile, and SSC and HSSC certificates. Roll numbers are issued only after the documents are verified.
Candidates not on this list
Candidates who were not selected remain in the running. Seats left unpaid after the deadline will go to the Second Merit List. Candidates who applied under a reserved quota will be considered in the quota round. These quotas include Baluchistan, AJK / NAS / FATA, Self Finance and Foreign Students. A candidate selected for a lower preference may also move up to a higher preference in a later list if a seat opens.
Statement
“We congratulate every candidate who has earned a place in the first merit list,” said Prof. Dr. Naveed Ahmed Shaikh, Vice Chancellor of The Shaikh Ayaz University. “Admission at SAUS is decided on merit alone. The process is open, every list is public, and every offer letter can be verified online. We look forward to welcoming the Spring 2027 batch to Shikarpur.”
Hamadullah Qureshi, Incharge of Admission Cell, urged selected candidates to pay their fee before the deadline. “Don’t wait for the last day. Once the deadline passes, an unpaid seat goes to the next candidate on merit.”
