The University of Health Sciences (UHS) has issued important instructions for candidates appearing in the Medical and Dental College Admission Test (MDCAT), including details about the release of MDCAT admit cards and the documents required on the exam day.
According to UHS, MDCAT admit cards will be available for download from August 6, 2026, through the university's official website. All registered candidates are advised to download and print their admit cards before the examination.

Candidates must bring one of the following original documents:
- Original Computerized National Identity Card (CNIC)
- Original Juvenile Card

UHS has clarified that candidates will not be permitted to sit the exam if they present only a B-Form, Birth Certificate, or Driving License, as these documents will not be accepted for identification.
