The Higher Education Commission (HEC) has issued notifications to all educational institutions to cease two-year bachelors degree programmes as it will not recognize any such programmes undertaken after the academic year 2018.
The commission wrote a letter to all public and private sector degree awarding institutions directing them to immediately stop such programs as HEC has decided to phase-out the 2-year degree BA/BSc program.
In 2019, the HEC had announced that they will end the 2-year BA/BSc programme replacing them with Associate Degree programmes (AD).
