Punjab University Law College postgraduate diploma admission 2026-27: 13 diplomas, BA or BCom eligible, Rs 500 form, apply by 11 December, classes 21 December.
Punjab University Law College in Lahore is taking applications for 13 postgraduate diplomas for session 2026-27, from taxation and labour law to human rights and Islamic law. Apply online at admissions.pu.edu.pk from 10 November to 11 December 2026, pay Rs 500, then send the printed form and documents to the Diploma Office by 11 December. Classes start on 21 December, twice a week in the evening. Anyone with a BA, BSc, BCom or an equivalent degree can apply.
We read the admission notice that the University of the Punjab put up on pu.edu.pk on 10 November. Then we opened the online admission portal on 12 November and went through it as far as we could without making an account. The portal does list all 13 diplomas. But it still carries a "Fall-2026" heading, and the fee step it describes is not quite the same as the notice. Both are explained below.

The notice does not print the tuition fee for the diploma itself. Only the Rs 500 form fee is on it. Ask the Diploma Office for the full programme fee before you pay anything else.
All 13 PU Law College postgraduate diplomas
The notice lists the diplomas with their short codes. The portal's "Offered Programs" page showed the same 13 when we checked, each under "University Law College (Quaid-i-Azam Campus)".
| No. | Code | Diploma |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | PGDTL | Taxation Laws |
| 2 | PGDLL | Labour Laws |
| 3 | PGDIP | Intellectual Property Laws |
| 4 | PGDEL | Environmental Laws |
| 5 | PGDILT (WTO) | International Trade (WTO) Laws |
| 6 | PGDBL | Banking Laws |
| 7 | PGDCLP | Corporate Laws and Practice |
| 8 | PGDFSL | Forensic Science and Related Laws |
| 9 | PGDCL | Constitutional Laws |
| 10 | PGDIL | Islamic Laws |
| 11 | PGDSL | Service Laws |
| 12 | PGDHRL | Human Rights Laws |
| 13 | PGDCP | Criminology and Penology |
Who usually picks which? Tax consultants and accountants often take Taxation Laws. HR staff take Labour Laws or Service Laws, the last one being about government service rules. Bankers take Banking Laws. These are our suggestions from the subject names, not PU advice.
How to apply for a PU Law College diploma, step by step
The admission has two parts: an online form and a posted paper file. Many applicants miss the second part. Here is the order we would follow, from the notice and the portal's own instructions.
- Open admissions.pu.edu.pk in a new Chrome or Firefox. The portal warns that older browsers will not load it.
- Click "Fill Form" and read the instructions box, then click "OK, I have read above instructions".
- Fill the four tabs: Personal Info, Educational Info, Experience/Publications, and Apply.
- Upload a recent passport photo with a blue background, under 200 KB.
- Choose your diploma from the offered list and do the final submission.
- Print the fee challan and pay at HBL or UBL, or through 1Bill.
- Go back and click "Generate Application", uploading a picture of the paid challan.
- Print the application. Send it with the paid challan and copies of your documents to the Diploma Office, Punjab University Law College, Faculty of Law, New Campus, Lahore, by post or by hand, by 11 December.
We stopped at the CNIC box on the Personal Info tab. Going further needs your own CNIC and creates a profile, so we did not fill it. Steps 5 to 8 come from the portal's printed instructions and the notice.
What we found on the PU admission portal
Three things are worth knowing before you start.
First, the portal header on 12 November still read "Online Admissions (Fall-2026)", and a second heading below it showed "Fall - " with the year missing. That looks like an old label, not a closed portal. The diplomas were still listed under Offered Programs, so the form is open.
Second, the portal says that once you apply for a programme you cannot apply again on that programme to change quota. So pick carefully before final submission. You also cannot edit your details after final submission.
Third, the campus name differs between the notice and the portal. The notice header says "New Campus" and the footer says "Quaid-e-Azam Campus, Lahore 54590". The portal says "Quaid-i-Azam Campus". These are one campus: the Quaid-e-Azam Campus is the university's New Campus. Use the full postal address from the notice on your envelope.
If you also want a PU degree or transcript for your file, see our guide on how to apply for a Punjab University degree or transcript. Exam fees for PU programmes are in PU exam fee 2026 by programme.
Documents to keep ready
The notice says "all relevant documents" but does not list them. From the portal's tabs, these are the ones it asks about, so keep copies of each in your posted file.
- CNIC copy, and your father's CNIC number
- Recent passport photo, blue background
- Matric, intermediate and BA, BSc or BCom marks sheets and degree
- Experience letters, if you list a job in the Experience tab
- The paid Rs 500 challan and the printed application
Use a courier with tracking, or deliver by hand and ask for a receipt. A file posted on the last day may not reach the office by 11 December.
