is a proactive financial aid. It provides merit-based and need-based grants to students across Punjab and other areas. PEEF is known for its &#8220;doorstep&#8221; approach. This approach helps to reach out to students based on board results rather than waiting for them to find the funds. The core objectives of PEEF<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Supporting students from families with a monthly income of around PKR 60,000 or less.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rewarding students who achieve at least 60% marks in their annual examinations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Providing quotas for orphans, children of Grade 1\u20134 government employees, minorities, and children of civilians martyred in terrorist attacks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Apply_for_the_PEEF_Scholarship_in_2026\"><\/span><strong>How to Apply for the PEEF Scholarship in 2026?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Applying for a PEEF scholarship is a structured process. This process varies slightly depending on whether you fall under the Outreach or Special Quota category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_Outreach_Scholarships_Work\"><\/span><strong>How do Outreach Scholarships Work?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the Outreach category (Inter and Graduation), PEEF typically obtains data directly from the Boards of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are on the merit list, PEEF will send an Intimation Letter and an application form directly to your home address. You simply need to fill out that form and return it to the PEEF office or your institution as directed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Apply_for_Special_Quota_and_Masters_Level\"><\/span><strong>How to Apply for Special Quota and Master\u2019s Level?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For these categories, students must take the initiative:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Visit the official PEEF Website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Navigate to the &#8220;Downloads&#8221; section and select the relevant form (Special Quota or Master\u2019s).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Print the form and fill it out manually with accurate details.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Submit the completed form to the Financial Aid Office of your respective university or college. PEEF does not usually accept Master&#8217;s applications sent directly to its head office.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Fill_the_PEEF_Scholarship_Form_Properly\"><\/span><strong>How to Fill the PEEF Scholarship Form Properly?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Filling out the scholarship form is the most critical stage. A single error can lead to disqualification. Follow this step-by-step checklist:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Provide your Personal details like full name, CNIC (or B-Form) number, and active contact information.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accurately enter your academic history, which includes previous marks, roll number, and board\/university name.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Financial status is the most scrutinised section. You must declare your father\/guardian&#8217;s total monthly income from all sources.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Provide special category proof; if applying under a special quota, attach the required certificates (e.g., Death Certificate for orphans or Disability Certificate).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_Required_Documents_for_2026\"><\/span><strong>What are the Required Documents for 2026?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All documents are attested by a Grade 17 or higher government officer. Incomplete forms are often rejected without notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th><strong>Document Type<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Requirement<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>CNIC \/ B-Form<\/strong><\/td><td>Attested copy of the student and father\/guardian.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Academic Records<\/strong><\/td><td>Attested copies of the latest result card (Matric\/Inter).<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Income Affidavit<\/strong><\/td><td>A legal document on stamp paper confirming monthly income.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Utility Bills<\/strong><\/td><td>Recent copies of electricity or gas bills for address verification.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Photographs<\/strong><\/td><td>Passport-sized photos with a blue or white background.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Check_PEEF_Scholarship_Status\"><\/span><strong>How to Check PEEF Scholarship Status?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have submitted your application, the waiting period begins. You don&#8217;t have to visit the office in person; you can check your status digitally. Steps to check your status online:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to the <a href=\"https:\/\/student.peef.org.pk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PEEF Student Portal.<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select your level of education (Inter, Graduation, etc.).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enter your Board Roll Number or PEEF Code (if provided).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select your Passing Year and Board Name.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click &#8220;Submit&#8221; to view your current application status (e.g., &#8220;In Process,&#8221; &#8220;Selected,&#8221; or &#8220;Disbursed&#8221;).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may also visit multiple <a href=\"https:\/\/scholarbee.pk\/search-scholarship\">scholarship opportunities<\/a> for Pakistani students via ScholarBee.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Check_PEEF_Scholarship_Merit_Lists\"><\/span><strong>How to Check PEEF Scholarship Merit Lists?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PEEF merit lists are usually released a few months after the application deadlines.
