The merit list for the PM Laptop Scheme 2025 is out — and while many students are celebrating their selection, others are left disappointed seeing their names missing.
If your name didn’t appear in the list, don’t lose hope!
In this post, we’ll guide you through what steps to take, what could be the reasons behind it, and how you can still stay in the running or prepare for future opportunities.
Why Your Name Might Not Be in the Merit List
There are several common reasons students don’t make it to the final merit list:
-
Incomplete or incorrect application
-
Your university didn’t verify your record
-
You didn’t meet academic criteria (low CGPA or percentage)
-
You’re enrolled in a private university (not eligible)
-
You missed the application deadline
-
You’ve already received a laptop in a previous phase
Tip: Don’t assume rejection until you understand the full reason. Your issue might be fixable!
Step 1: Check Your Application Status
Visit: www.pmyp.gov.pk
-
Enter your CNIC and check whether your application status says:
-
“Pending”
-
“Rejected”
-
“Under Verification”
-
Sometimes your name might be excluded temporarily due to verification delays.
Still showing “Under Process”? You might still make it in the next batch.
Step 2: Contact Your University’s Focal Person
Each university has a dedicated focal person who manages PM Laptop Scheme verification.
-
Visit your department or student affairs office
-
Ask them to confirm whether your application was verified
-
If not, request manual verification or file a grievance
A simple verification error might be the only reason you were missed.
Step 3: File a Complaint via Grievance Portal
The PM Youth Program has an official Grievance Redressal System.
👉 Go to: pmyp.gov.pk
Click on “Laptop Scheme > Grievance / Complaint”
Fill in:
-
Your Name
-
CNIC
-
University name
-
Description of the issue
Attach proof if available (screenshot, transcript, ID card, etc.)
Once submitted, wait for 5–7 working days for a response.

Step 4: Stay Updated for Second Merit List (If Announced)
Sometimes, HEC and PMYP announce a second merit list to accommodate:
-
Verified late applications
-
Vacant slots from unclaimed laptops
-
Students who resolved their issues

-
Use your own device (if available) to build your portfolio
-
Prepare for next year’s phase or other youth programs
Remember — a missed laptop is not the end, it’s just a pause. Keep pushing forward.
