Few Changes

For almost every field/major Few Changes, I have observed in it as compared with the previous years
1) As previously followed, you will apply and if HEC panel US universities (currently 235 Universities in the list) select you, your tuition fee will be waived automatically and you will get stipend and other expenses by HEC
2) New ChangeNew Change: Previously, HEC was not paying at all any tuition fee of any US universities other than its panel US universities (Currently 235 universities in the panel). But this year, it says that it will pay negotiated Tuition fee of QS Top 300 Overall US Universities. So I think, they will pay some negotiated Tuition fee if you get admitted to QS top 300 US University. For more clarity, contact HEC on info given on poster and inform us also, so we can share here
3) You can apply if your destination US university have waived GRE condition for you. But you then have to clear upcoming in future HAT test by HEC
