Fake,Illegal,Unlawful & Unrecognized Institutions in Pakistan By HEC There is a Higher Education Commission of Pakistan (HEC) that recognizes degrees from accredited universities and higher education establishments (HEIs) that are in both the private and public sectors, in addition to their accredited campuses in specific areas as listed in the HEC website.
There is a way to confirm the accreditation of colleges affiliated with public sector institutions by contacting the universities of the institution concerned. Furthermore, Private sector HEIs cannot be licensed to provide affiliations and are only able to function by operating through their accredited Main Campus as well as accredited campuses/sub-campuses, with a Non-Objection Certificate (NOC) issued by the Higher Education Commission (HEC) as displayed on their website.
The list of fake illegal, illegal, and unrecognized institutions from Pakistan found to be discovered up to now can be found here as well as on the HEC website at https://www.hec.gov.pk/english/universities/Pages/AJK/Illegal-DAIs.aspx.
Additionally, any campus, sub-campus or branch, college, or outpost that is not established with HEC approval and not listed on the website of HEC could be considered illegal, forgery, or illegal, and not recognized as an institution. Degrees earned at these institutions would have no recognition from HEC.HEC will treat any other university/HEI that is not mentioned in the HEC Recognized Universities/Institutions/Campuses list and is functioning illegally as a false, illegal, unlawful, and unrecognized institution.

People Are Not Taking This
People are angry. They’re wondering who’s responsible for these students who have invested many years and the money of their parents and are now told that their degrees are fake. People are also asking if HEC simply creating a situation that makes the public “aware”? Why is the commissionn’t closing these institutions, and who’s allowing these institutions to continue to exist? Given the recent performance of HEC in implementing the single national curriculum and the closure of schools repeatedly, people aren’t happy.
