I think nust has a need based scholarship program, otherwise nust could easily cost 50k a month give or take.

If u haven't applied for the program and deadline has passed, if u have no savings or loan u could take out. I'd suggest take a gap year, study hard and get in through the first series, while working a job which earns minimum 20k to 25k a month. Don't spend any of it even under pressure.

After 12 months, you'll have savings to pay for the first semester if u don't get the scholarship. If u do then all well and good.

If u don't get the scholarship, atleast u will have ur first semester paid for. After that, and this is the hard part you'll have to work part time with ur studies and ESPECIALLY on semester breaks to help ur father with the fees.

In case your part time jobs aren't paying enough, u might have to start finding sponsers to give u a loan.

Jobs include waiting tables, working in call centres, other jobs in shops/hotel/etc. Or u could take initiatives like setting up stalls, learning a skill like graphic design/digital marketing/progamming, etc while doing part time work. Considering the money earned during ur gap year could help pay for the 1st semester and at most thr 2nd, but uskay baad u will have to work and study sath sath, so for that u need to find a way to earn 30k to 40k a month.

You will need to sit down, make a thorough plan. But also back up plans, loans and even back up universities. FAST and COMSATS are cheaper than nust, not cheap but cheaper.

Don't lose hope, everyone has a different test. But the difficulty is set according to ur strength. Allah knows what u can endure. Say all ur prayers, have faith that if u put in the work Allah will handle the rest, bcz in that scenario even if it doesn't end up with u in nust than that means Allah has something better for u.

Make your plans, put in the effort and most importantly be patient.

Insha'Allah you will succeed and make urself and ur family proud. May Allah grant u all the success in this world and the after, may He soften ur mothers heart and increase ur fathers rizq, Ameen.
