Who Can Apply: Eligibility and Age Limit
The advertisement sets both an education requirement and an age limit. The age is calculated on 1 April 2027, so check it against that date and not today's.
| Class | Education required | Age on 1 April 2027 |
|---|---|---|
| 7th | Passed Class 6, or appearing in the Class 6 annual exam | 11 to 13 years |
| 8th | Passed Class 7, or appearing in the Class 7 annual exam | 12 to 14½ years |
As a rough guide, a Class 7 applicant would have been born between about April 2014 and April 2016, and a Class 8 applicant between about October 2012 and April 2015. Use the exact date on your child's B-Form to confirm, as a boy who falls just outside the limit may not be accepted.
How to Apply Online
The college website gives an online route and a manual form. For the online application:
- Scan the required documents in JPG or JPEG format before you begin.
- Pay the Rs3,000 fee using the bank details shown on the college's How to Apply page, or arrange a bank draft from any bank in the name of "Cadet College Jhelum".
- Open the admission portal, click Register and create a new application. If you already have an account, click Login.
- Fill in the form and upload the documents.
- Submit before 31 December 2026 and keep a copy of your application.
Only take the account details from the college's own website. Do not send money to an account number shared on WhatsApp or by an agent.
Documents You Will Need
- Recent photograph with a blue background.
- B-Form or birth certificate.
- Payment slip of the Rs3,000 fee, or a bank draft.
If you use the manual form, the website asks you to post it with four passport-size photographs, a copy of the B-Form or birth certificate, and the bank draft to Cadet College Jhelum, Peer Shahab, GT Road, Jhelum. Post it early, so that it reaches the college before the closing date.
Selection Process and Written Test
Admission is granted on open merit. Candidates go through four stages: a written test, an intelligence test, an interview and a medical examination.
The written test covers English, General Science, Mathematics and Urdu, according to the college's syllabus. Download the Class 7 syllabus or Class 8 syllabus from the official website. These files were uploaded in 2024, so also check the current prospectus and model papers that come with the application.
Exam Centres for the Written Test
The advertisement lists 12 cities where the test will be held:
| Peshawar | Rawalpindi | Gujranwala |
| Jhelum | Faisalabad | Quetta |
| Karachi | Bahawalpur | Multan |
| Muzaffarabad | Sialkot | Lahore |
Please note: the college's How to Apply page says the written test will be held at Cadet College Jhelum, while this newer advertisement names all 12 cities. Confirm your centre with the college on 03-111-123-225 before you make travel plans.
A Simple Preparation Plan for the Next 10 Weeks
There are about ten weeks between now and the test, which is enough time if your son starts now. Begin by going through the syllabus and marking what he has not yet studied at school. Once the model papers arrive, have him attempt one under timed conditions, and use his mistakes to decide what to revise.
Practise English comprehension and grammar and basic Urdu writing regularly, and make sure Mathematics concepts are clear rather than just memorised. For the intelligence test, simple pattern and reasoning exercises help a child get used to the format. It is also sensible to get a general health check early, since selected candidates must clear a medical examination.
