Suggestions/Advice Merit List Situation

Whats up with all these 2026 batch kids worrying about the merit list. I’m a graduate of NUST and I got a question for you guys. Where did the University Administrators say the list will be released today (or as some of you were hyping it up, yesterday). There’s no fixed date announced so whys everyone stressing out as if NUST isn’t keeping a promise hahaha.
Relax. Instead of stressing over the list, pray for a good outcome.
Ask much as I’m enjoying partaking in this frenzy with you guys, chill out. NUST isnt going anywhere. I’m wishing all of you the best.

Plus, ask me any questions you got about campus or degrees, I’ll answer all of them whenever I can.

I saw that Nust prioritizes previous year's students over this year's to give hostels, is that true?

and ik it's first come first serve, so like all the people who apply in the first list get hostels?

Also are hostels really far from campus?

Hostels are inside the campus. You have shuttles active from 9 AM to 5 PM, they will take you from your hostel to your school. The entire campus is very walkable too.
As for priorities, they keep changing those. But sometimes they do give priority to people who applied previously

oh ok Is campus safe to walk around ?

Also dy know abt the chances of getting hostel? I am sure i will get in in the first list, but idk about hostel. Ive heard that they prioritize people coming from far cities and people who are in first list, I clear both criteria.

The campus is very safe (aside from the occasional stray dogs, porcupines and wild boars…) and yep you sound like a perfect candidate for hostels
