Fall 2025 Session · Faculty-wide rate · All students — no separate international rate

This is the tuition column of the "Computer Sciences Programs" row, which is the category BS Software Engineering falls in — COMSATS prices by programme category, not by named degree, and publishes no separate international rate. The quoted span deliberately starts at the table header so the PKR 139,000 can be seen to be the Tuition Fee column rather than the PKR 7,000 registration fee or the PKR 146,000 combined total; the rows for Architecture & Design and Pharmacy sit between the header and the Computer Sciences row and cannot be skipped without breaking the quote. The figure applies to the Fall 25, Spring 25, Fall 24 and Spring 24 batches; older batches pay less. COMSATS states the schedule is for the Fall 2025 Session and that "Fee rates are subject to revision in subsequent semesters", so it may already be behind for a 2026 entrant. The degree page cited for the programme itself is CUI's Lahore campus page, which is where COMSATS publishes the BSSE description; the fee schedule is the university-wide one.

COMSATS prices by programme category, not by named degree; this course sits in the "Computer Sciences Programs" row. The quoted row gives its three money cells in the order the table heads them: Registration Fee (7,000), Tuition Fee, then the two combined. The recorded figure is the Tuition Fee. The quote does not reach back up to the header because the span from there runs past the verifier’s 800-character cap. The figure is for the newest batches in that row; older batches pay less, which is what the extra columns are.

How COMSATS compares

Against the other universities in Pakistan on StudyPath, using each one's verified international fees and its own published housing prices. Universities are only compared with others charging in the same currency (and, for housing, for the same period), so no figure here has been converted. A ~ marks a year worked out from a per-term or whole-course fee.

COMSATS's lowest undergraduate fee for international students is ~PKR 256,000 a year, for Bachelor of Science (BS) in Accounting and Finance. Of the 8 other universities in Pakistan we list with undergraduate fees in PKR, 2 charge more at their lowest, 6 charge less. Their lowest undergraduate fees run from ~PKR 77,500 (Abasyn) to PKR 1,465,600 (LUMS).

Route to permanent residence

Pakistan's Ministry of Interior does not publish a distinct 'permanent residency' status for a foreign national separate from full citizenship. Its own visa-categories page describes Study and Work as two separate, mutually exclusive visa categories — a Study Visa (see workDuringStudy/postStudyWork: StudyPath found no published work-while-studying or post-study work-search rights attached to it) carries no work rights, and someone who wants to work instead needs sponsorship from a Pakistani employer for a Work Visa, requiring an employment agreement, a company undertaking, and the employer's SECP registration. A Work Visa is granted for an initial 3 months and can then be extended, subject to security-agency clearance and a Board of Investment recommendation letter, up to 2 years at a time with multiple entries — a status that is renewed rather than one that converts automatically into any more settled status after a stated number of years. The only route StudyPath found published toward a permanent status is naturalisation as a citizen outright (see citizenshipRoute) — Pakistan does not appear to publish an intermediate 'settled' or permanent-resident status of the kind several other countries on StudyPath describe.

Route to citizenship

Pakistani citizenship by naturalisation is governed by Section 9 of the Pakistan Citizenship Act, 1951, published on the Ministry of Law and Justice's own Pakistan Code portal. The Act's own text is unusually thin on stated criteria compared with the other countries on StudyPath: Section 9 lets the Federal Government register a person as a citizen of Pakistan by naturalisation upon their application, if they have already been granted a certificate of naturalisation under the (colonial-era) Naturalisation Act, 1926 — but its own proviso then goes further, stating that 'the Federal Government may register any person as a citizen of Pakistan without his having obtained a certificate of naturalisation as aforesaid,' i.e. the Act itself does not set out a numbered list of residence-year, language or character requirements the way most other countries on StudyPath publish; a commonly-cited 5-year-residence-plus-language figure is understood to come from subordinate Pakistan Citizenship Rules rather than the Act itself, and StudyPath could not locate the current text of those Rules on an official Pakistani government domain (see notes). On dual nationality, the Act is direct: Section 14(1) states that a citizen of Pakistan who is 'at the same time a citizen or national of any other country' must renounce that other nationality or 'cease to be a citizen of Pakistan' — the default is no dual nationality. Pakistan carves out a large, named exception to this default, however (Section 14(3)): the renunciation requirement does not apply to a Pakistani citizen who also holds citizenship of the United Kingdom and Colonies, or of 'such other country as the Federal Government may, by notification in the official Gazette, specify' — Pakistan has named a growing list of such countries by Gazette notification over time (reported elsewhere as including, among others, the United States, Canada, Australia, most of the EU and several Gulf and Middle Eastern states), so whether an applicant can keep their original nationality in practice depends on whether their specific country is on that notified list at the time.

New entry added 19 August 2026. Two Pakistani government domains accepted as a government source here: dgip.gov.pk (Directorate General of Immigration & Passports, which together with interior.gov.pk administers visas) and pakistancode.gov.pk (the Ministry of Law and Justice's own official legal-code portal, hosting the actual current text of the Pakistan Citizenship Act 1951). interior.gov.pk (Ministry of Interior) was tried directly for its own work-visa policy page but returned HTTP 404 on the URL found by search; dgip.gov.pk's own visa-categories page independently states materially the same work-visa mechanics and was used instead. workDuringStudy and postStudyWork are both left null: neither dgip.gov.pk nor any other Pakistani government page found states a specific work-while-studying entitlement attached to the Study Visa, or a distinct post-study/graduate job-search status separate from the ordinary employer-sponsored Work Visa — the visa-category structure (Study and Work kept as separate, non-overlapping categories) suggests none is published, but StudyPath records that as an absence of evidence rather than asserting a confirmed 'no' either way. Collection note: the Pakistan Citizenship Act PDF (pakistancode.gov.pk) returned raw binary bytes to automated fetching; it was downloaded and converted with pdftotext (poppler-utils, -enc UTF-8 -layout) and archived from a browser capture, the pattern already used elsewhere on StudyPath for PDF-only government sources. The Act's own Schedule contains only the oath of allegiance, not a naturalisation-qualifications schedule — the residence-length and language criteria commonly quoted in secondary sources appear to live in the separate Pakistan Citizenship Rules, 1952 (subordinate legislation), which StudyPath could not locate hosted on an official.gov.pk domain; a future collector should retry finding those Rules on pakistancode.gov.pk or a provincial law portal before asserting a specific residence-year figure for Pakistan. naturalisationStatus set to 'published-route': Section 9 and its proviso, however thin, are real statutory text a foreign resident could in principle be registered under — per the doc comment on ResidencyPathway.naturalisationStatus this field records only whether something is published, not how detailed or predictable the criteria are, and Pakistan's own Act is genuinely unusual on StudyPath for leaving naturalisation almost entirely to government discretion rather than spelling out a numbered qualifying test. citizenshipTerms records minimumResidenceYears null because Section 9 of the Pakistan Citizenship Act 1951 sets no residence-year figure, and the subordinate Pakistan Citizenship Rules that are commonly cited for a 5-year figure could not be located on an official Pakistani government domain. dualCitizenshipAllowed is false because that is the Act’s own default, stated in Section 14’s heading and Section 14(1); Section 14(3) exempts citizens of the United Kingdom and Colonies and of any other country the Federal Government notifies in the official Gazette, so for an applicant whose country is on that notified list the answer is the opposite — see citizenshipRoute.
