PESHAWAR:

Khyber Medical University (KMU) Peshawar organized the Centralized Admission Make-Up Test (KMU CAT MAKE-UP) at its main campus on Sunday, facilitating admissions to undergraduate programs, including DPT, BS Nursing, and other allied health sciences.

This initiative also extends its support to students seeking admission in affiliated and constituent institutions, including KMU-IHS Islamabad and second-shift KMU-IHS Hazara, Abbottabad. A significant turnout of 1,317 candidates participated in this test.

The purpose of the make-up test was to accommodate candidates who missed previous KMU CAT tests due to various reasons. VC KMU, Prof Dr. Ziaul Haq, highlighted that the participation of 1,317 candidates not only underscored their confidence in KMU but also reflected the merit and quality of Allied Health Sciences education.
