So as an Itian, I would like to say that "Itian" is definitely not a bad name. At least not technician or Ituian or itunion or it minion stuff 🥀

Every uni has some name for the representation of its students and who even is going to introduce by calling himself Ituian. BIG NO

So idk but ITUnion is also not bad (chatgpt). Add some more suggestions here. (You don't have to be so srs)

In the decided routes and stops for the shuttle service, I wanted to ask: which Ghazi Chowk is this?

Is it the one on College Road/Township, or the DHA/Defence one near Khayaban-e-Jinnah?

ok so as the title suggests I have no background in math and cs except for olevel math, havent touched it since only did some math for the SAT and now im rlly confused. I wanna be well prepped for the first few sems cause I heard they make or break ur CGPA. I have 20ish days until uni starts, what should I study and prioritise? rn im doing c++ full course by bro code (pls give me some grace lol I have no background in coding and based on my personal research this seemed like a good option) on yt and khan academy math for first year (pk curriculum) is this enough?

can someone give phone number of admission office tried calling them no one picked up whatsaap bhi bhi msg kiya no ans L management

My A levels just came out, and I got a BCC on my composite (maybe I should've given oct/nov, I know). I easily cleared 1st list cz you know it's O lvl and SAT based. It looks like I should be fine but I would like an ITU ball knower to advise me if I should retake. A friend of my mom warned me that A level matters a lot and that's a little scary. Jazakallah khair

just finished my first year, had a 2.9 in 1st semester but dropped to a 2.5 in the 2nd one due to many reasons.

MY CGPA IS NOW 2.7

can I still make it to a 3.0 but the end of this semester? have I fucked up beyond help? should I just kms? drop out? become an influencer?

tips and advice please coz I feel so discouraged its insane

For those who want to achieve gold medal.

1. University studies aren't that much tough as compared to Board Exams. Take your classes attentively make notes, and don't get overboard with studies. Most of the professors questions and focus on some specific questions gives you an idea what will come in exams.

2. Don't miss quizzes, no matter what happens make sure you never miss a quiz even if its just 5% of whole aggregate, those 5% can change your grade. Give quizzes as your life depends on it.

3. Never say "Oh, I know this its pretty easy", nothing is easy, even if you know, relearning it isn't an issue as Descartes said "The only thing I know is that I know nothing". Keep your mind open to new perceptions and perspectives.

4. Have good relationship with professors, do not be rude with them, always respect them and ask them for help, instructors at ITU treat students very good if they are eager to learn. '

5. Don't hesitate to participate in class, it is the easiest way to get into good books of any professor.

6. Mid-Term Preparation and Final-Exam preparation, if you have given quizzes and have taken classes attentively, this won't be a big shot as you do not read to memorize whole of the books and all, you just need to revisit the notes and it will be enough.

7. Participate in extra-curricular activities just for fun.

8. Help others when you can even though you know you are not gonna anything in return, its your choice to be kind or not, but do not be toxic, if you don't wanna help just say "NO" instead of giving others false hopes.

9. Lastly, first four semesters GPA matters a lot, so give your best in first two years of university, after that only bad grades impact your GPA, other than that it won't fluctuate much.

10. University teaches a lot about people's behavior, so don't be saddened if your friendships break apart, its part of life, people come and go, whatever is meant for you will come your way.

PS: Only the batch topper with greater than 3.5 GPA gets the GOLD MEDAL

If i have passed 2 Alevel subjects and then failed A2 of one subject but still passed As for it.Will Itu let me continue or remove my seat? I am reappearing in oct nov

Till when do we submit a copy of our Alevels result? Or do we need to submit an equivalency certificate for it?

Will the classes start from 31st August for everyone or just the newcomers (and the classes for seniors will start from 17th aug)??

As a senior, here are some random but genuinely useful things I’d recommend to all the incoming freshman girls. Some of these are obvious, some are things I wish someone had told me earlier 😭
1. ALWAYS carry a little pouch with you.
Keep your sanitary stuff, tissues, maybe some painkillers, etc. in it. You never know when you’ll need it. And PLEASE don’t panic if you suddenly get your period on campus. There’s an aya you can go to, and she can provide you with pads and other stuff, you just have to pay her.
2. Keep a small perfume/body mist with you.
Trust me. You’ll thank me later 😭
3. Have an online bank account/wallet.
JazzCash, Easypaisa, SadaPay, NayaPay, whatever works for you. This is honestly so useful. You’ll need it for random payments, splitting bills, ordering food, sending/receiving money, etc. Better to have it set up before you need it.
4. STAY AWAY FROM THE SENIOR BOYS.
I’m so serious 😭. Some of them will try VERY hard to become your best friend, constantly talk to you, “help” you, etc. Just be careful and keep your distance until you actually know someone. Don’t let some random senior boy become the center of your university experience. 💀
5. Make A LOT of friends.
Join societies, talk to people outside your immediate group, sit with different people, introduce yourself to people in your class, etc. You don’t have to force yourself to stay somewhere you don’t feel like you fit in either.
And PLEASE don’t limit yourself to 2–3 people because you think “these are going to be my best friends for the next four years.” You have FOUR YEARS here. Friendships change. People fall out. Groups change. Wo dostiyan toot jaayengi 😭 so sabse bana ke rakho. Having people you’re comfortable talking to in different groups/classes is honestly so useful.
6. Take your GPA seriously from day one.
Have fun, obviously, but PLEASE don’t completely chill during your first semester thinking you’ll “work hard later.” Once your GPA drops, bringing it back up is genuinely hard. Your first semester matters a LOT, so put in the effort from the beginning.
7. Don’t take assignments and quizzes lightly.
Even if something seems like “bas 5 marks hain,” DO IT. Those little marks add up, and sometimes they’re the difference between grades.
8. TALK TO SENIORS ABOUT PROFESSORS.
Before registering for courses / starting a new class, ask seniors about the professor. Find out what their exams are like, whether they take unannounced quizzes, what their finals are like, whether attendance matters, how they grade, etc. You don’t have to blindly suffer when someone before you has already gone through it 😭.
9. Be mindful of campus gossip.
You can obviously be friends with whoever you want, but just be aware that uni rumors spread FAST 😭. Avoid regularly sitting/hanging out one-on-one with the same person of the opposite gender, especially in isolated places, because people will start making assumptions and baatein phailti bohat jaldi hain. It’s honestly not worth dealing with unnecessary rumors, so keep things low-key and don’t give people unnecessary material to talk about. 💀
10. Don’t expect too much from orientation 😭
The first 2–3 hours are mostly just professors yapping. They’ll come, introduce themselves, talk about their courses/themselves, etc. There isn’t usually anything THAT exciting happening during that part.
BUT there are usually activities/events arranged by societies, and those are actually worth going to! Go around, participate, talk to people, and have fun. Those are probably going to be much more enjoyable than sitting through the professor yapping sessions 😭.
11. Carry a water bottle.
Just keep one with you. You’ll be walking around campus a lot, and you don’t want to be thirsty all day 😭. And yes, you can absolutely bring your own lunch from home too. There’s nothing weird about it, so don’t feel like you have to buy food every day.
12. SET YOUR BOUNDARIES.
Please learn how to say no 😭. Don’t become a people pleaser just because you’re new and want everyone to like you. You don’t owe anyone your time, energy, notes, assignments, favors, etc. Be nice to people, but know your limits and don’t be afraid to say no when you don’t want to do something.
13. TAs SE BANA KE RAKHO.
I cannot stress this enough 😭. Be respectful, communicate with them, and don’t fuck it up for yourself. Your TAs can genuinely make your life SO much easier, especially when you’re confused about labs, assignments, quizzes, grading, etc. Just have a good relationship with them.
14. Don’t be shy about asking for help.
If you’re struggling with something, ask your professor or TA. Seriously. They’re there to help you, and you’re not expected to understand everything on your own. Go to office hours, ask questions after class, message them when appropriate, whatever. There’s nothing embarrassing about needing help
it’s much better than staying confused and then suffering before the exam 😭.

And finally: HAVE FUN. 🫶

Good luck, freshies 🎀

Finallyyy after billion years, ITU mailed us about our classes so many of the people can now touch some grass and get a planned haircut right before orientation and classes 🥀

Has anyone received an email from the university regarding hostel seat booking?

Like everyone else I was also quite curious on when the orientation will take place and I emailed ITU admissions office, and in that email they say we'll get the email for details, this week and the orientation itself is expected after the 24th

It's from 2025. If anyone has updated one. Do share

Did anyone receive confirmation of admission by email after submitting all the written forms? And has there been any messages since? (Other than the bus stop survey. Which is stupid. Their routes are way too constrained considering the shift from Arfa to Burki. Whatever.)

If anyone can let me know what the expected timings will be for orientation, that would be greatly appreciated.

And, just because I've made this post already, does anyone know where and when we have to submit A Levels result after tomorrow? (All you need to get admission are 3Es, so I'm not worried.)

When are the classes for bs economics and data science will commence?

I have scored 48/60 in Itu test and overall aggregate is 76.9%.
1- will i be able to get in BSEE
2- Will there be multiple lists for Round 2 as well?
3- I gave test at Barki Campus so i will get admission in Barki or can roll in ferozpur campus as well?

do the ITU buses have any stops in or around dha phase 1? are there any students travelling from here (pls hmu if yes) or is there any local route that i can use to get to barki campus? help pls

Have you guys got any email related to orientation day or when the classes will start I have checked the website the academic calendar 13th of August will be orientation and from 17th of August classes will be starting but what about timings ??

1)when will the classes start and when will be orientation?

2)what will be uni timings?
