Complete Timeline of PM Laptop Scheme Phase 4 2025
PM Laptop Scheme Phase 4 (2025) has arrived, and students across Pakistan are waiting impatiently for their turn to avail themselves. Under the Prime Minister Youth Program (PMYP), the government will provide 100,000 laptops to deserving students pursuing education in public universities. The initiative is to assist those students who require digital resources for learning, freelancing, and professional development.
If you are a student and would like to be included in this program, being aware of the complete schedule is quite crucial. Skipping a single step may lose you a golden chance.
Scheme Launch and Objective
Phase 4 of the scheme was launched by the government in March 2025. The prime objective is to narrow the gap between students with and without access to digital resources. As technology becomes increasingly important in education and the workplace, this scheme makes sure that deserving students are not left behind merely for not being able to afford a laptop.
Laptops made available under this scheme enable students to join online classes, enhance computer skills, and even start making a living through online opportunities.
Application Process Opened in April
Applicants could begin applying from 1st April 2025 onwards through the official portal: www.pmyp.gov.pk. The website is very easy and user-friendly to operate. You simply need to register with your CNIC, educational information, and some vital documents such as:
- CNIC or B-form
- University student card
- Latest academic transcript
The application is also accessible through the PMYP mobile app, which helps to facilitate easier application by students, particularly in rural areas, without the need for a computer.
May 20: Deadline for Applications
The last date for submitting applications is May 20, 2025. Under no circumstances will late applications be entertained, so students are requested to apply at their earliest convenience. This deadline is for students pursuing Bachelor’s, Master’s, MPhil, and PhD courses from HEC-approved public universities.
If you’re a student of a private university or an affiliate college, you do not qualify for applying in this stage.
Verification and Shortlisting in June
Once the deadline is over, the Higher Education Commission (HEC) and universities will cross-check all applications received. This will happen between mid-May and mid-June 2025. The team will verify:
- Your enrollment status
- Academic performance
- CNIC details
History of past laptop schemes
Only those who clear this verification will proceed further. This process ensures that only deserving and eligible students get laptops.
Merit List Will Be Published in July
After verification, the merit list will be released on the PMYP website in early July 2025. Students can see if they are selected or not by putting their CNIC or tracking number on the portal.
Students who are selected will also get SMS or email notifications, so be sure to update your contact details on the portal.
Distribution Starts Mid-July
The actual distribution of laptops will begin in mid-July 2025. Each university will hold official events where students will receive their laptops. If your name is on the merit list, you’ll need to bring:
- Your original CNIC
- University student ID
- Printed confirmation of selection
Universities will inform students about the date and location of the distribution events through their departments or student affairs offices.
Final Phase: Complaints and Support
By August 2025, the last phase will be initiated. This phase will address complaints, lost applications, and verification errors. If you feel you were unfairly excluded, you can approach your university’s focal person or call the PMYP support team directly.
This makes it possible that no deserving student is excluded because of errors or system failure.
Final Thoughts
The PM Laptop Scheme 2025 is not merely about laptops to give away—it’s about creating windows of opportunity for access to education, innovation, and computerized success for Pakistani students. Stay in the know and keep to the timeline, and you have a better chance of being chosen. If you qualify, don’t hesitate. Apply within deadline and be prepared to advance your academic path.
