However, it was informed that there was no provision for migration between the two campuses because students were admitted to one or another according to their merit in the FSc examination. "The syndicate then discussed the circumstances of the student whose father, an Engineer, died in Saudi Arabia and left behind a widow and four children. His mother is not in a position to maintain herself and look after the children in Lahore by herself.
