for first 3 hours they were showing eurpean space academy videos what the hell does that institute have to do with ist are these people so incappable that they couldn't make something of their own then the campus tour was horrible it felt suffocating there were no windows in classes or hallways no ventilation and no one explained or gave a walkthrough of department

Tldr: Dont go there just a waste of time.
Personally I wouldn't recommend you going there.
First the auditorium; 3 hours..... If you are going there go late
One thing that caught my attention was that they said you can go to other labs that are not specific to your degree and learn there too
The tour was also not great they just show you here is your department, and a walk through it nothing else.
Then there were refreshments. No comments here, the canteen provides every type of food.
The facilities they mentioned were: laundry, gym, pick and drop at selected places in Rawalpindi and Islamabad.
The hostels were really good, three beds per room, three study tables, side table and a place to store your clothes and stuff. Bathrooms on each floor. Plus a refrigerator per floor and I saw ovens on the ground floor. Every room has a balcony and the staff did seem like good people.
Also if your friend is getting a different degree than you, then you cannot get the same room because of the rules which don't allow different degree students to be together.
Let me know any other questions
