From registration to award
Register on the student portal
Create your account at the Zabtec student portal using your CNIC. Verify your email and phone number to secure your profile.
Complete your single profile
Enter your personal, academic and financial details once. The portal automatically identifies every program you're eligible for — no need to apply to each separately.
Upload documents
Attach clear scans of your CNIC, transcripts, admission letter and, for need-based tracks, your income proof. The portal flags anything missing before you submit.
Submit & track
Review and submit. You'll receive a confirmation and can follow your application status live — received, under assessment, shortlisted, or awarded.
Assessment & verification
Zabtec scores merit and need against published criteria and verifies documents with your institution. Shortlisted applicants may be asked for an interview or clarification.

Successful applicants receive an award letter. Tuition and stipends are disbursed on the published schedule, and your mentor and support services are activated.
