Formula verified Oct 2026 · Source: CUI Fall 2026 Merit Calculator and CUI Undergraduate Guide 2025-26 (Entrance Test, p. 33)
Matric 10% + Intermediate 40% + NTS NAT 50%. If your HSSC result is awaited, enter your first-year (Part-I) marks, as CUI asks.
Most BS programs (CS, Software Engineering (non-eng), AI, Data Science, Cyber Security, BBA, Economics, Psychology…) need at least 50% in Intermediate. The merit formula is the same.
1100 or 1200, as printed on your certificate.
1100 for full HSSC; use your Part-I total (e.g. 550) if Part-II is awaited.
CUI's calculator takes the NTS score out of 100.
| Component | Marks | Percent | Weight | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Matric / SSC | 1,000 / 1,100 | 90.91% | 10% | 9.09 |
| HSSC / Intermediate | 900 / 1,100 | 81.82% | 40% | 32.73 |
| NTS NAT | 70 / 100 | 70.00% | 50% | 35.00 |
| Aggregate | 76.82 | |||
- Intermediate 81.82% vs the 50% minimum for CS, AI, SE, BBA & other BS: met.
- NAT gives 35.00 of your points. Each NAT mark adds 0.50 aggregate points, so 10 more marks add 5.0.
- Closing merits differ by program, campus and merit list each year; check the merit lists on the CUI admission portal for your campus.
You need at least 77 / 100 in NTS NAT to reach 80.00%.
| NAT | Aggregate |
|---|---|
| 100 / 100 | 91.82% |
| 90 / 100 | 86.82% |
| 80 / 100 | 81.82% |
| 70 / 100 | 76.82% |
| 60 / 100 | 71.82% |
| 50 / 100 | 66.82% |
| 40 / 100 | 61.82% |
| 33 / 100 | 58.32% |
- Entering your NAT percentile or a score out of a different total. CUI's calculator takes the NTS score out of 100.
- Using 1100 as the total with Part-I marks. If Part-II is awaited, enter Part-I marks with the Part-I total.
- Applying to engineering with less than 33% in NTS or less than 60% in Intermediate; you won't be eligible whatever your aggregate.
- Using this formula for B.Arch or Design programs, which add a Creative Aptitude Test and interview (see the eligibility criteria).
- →NAT is worth half your aggregate; every 10 NAT marks moves you 5 points, far more than a few extra board marks.
- →You can list up to seven program preferences on one CUI application form; rank them in the order you'd genuinely accept.
- →NTS holds several NAT sessions before CUI's deadlines (Fall 2026: 14 June, 12 July, 9 August); an early attempt leaves time to retake.
- →Last dates differ by campus (Fall 2026: Islamabad 8 July, Lahore 24 July, Abbottabad 6 August), so check your campus schedule.

What is the COMSATS Aggregate Calculator 2026 (CUI)?
The COMSATS Aggregate Calculator works out the merit score that COMSATS University Islamabad (CUI) uses to rank applicants for its BS programs at all seven campuses: Islamabad, Lahore, Abbottabad, Wah, Attock, Sahiwal and Vehari. It follows CUI's own Fall 2026 Merit Calculator on the admission portal and the CUI Undergraduate Guide 2025-26: Matriculation 10%, Intermediate 40% and NTS test 50%. The guide lists the same 10/40/50 weightage for engineering and non-engineering programs, so Computer Science, BBA and Electrical Engineering are all merited the same way.
CUI's entrance test is the NTS National Aptitude Test (NAT-I). For Fall 2026 the admission advertisement lists NAT as the undergraduate entry test, with NTS test dates on 14 June, 12 July and 9 August 2026, and you need a valid NAT result when you submit your form. CUI's official calculator takes the NTS score out of 100 and simply halves it, so every NAT mark adds 0.5 aggregate points. Matric and Intermediate are converted to percentages of their own totals and multiplied by 10 and 40.
Worked example: Matric 1000/1100, Intermediate 900/1100 and NAT 70/100. Matric gives 1000 ÷ 1100 × 10 = 9.09, Intermediate gives 900 ÷ 1100 × 40 = 32.73 and NAT gives 70 ÷ 2 = 35.00. The aggregate is 76.82%. To reach 80% with the same board marks, this student would need about 76.4 in NAT, i.e. at least 77 out of 100.
If your HSSC result is awaited, CUI asks for your first-year (Part-I) marks instead. For A-level result-awaiting candidates, CUI's calculator counts O-level equivalent marks (from the IBCC equivalence certificate) as 50%, with NAT as the other 50%. Architecture and Art & Design programs (B.Arch, B.Design, Interior Design, Fine Arts) use a different formula with a Creative Aptitude Test and interview, so this calculator does not cover them.
On top of the aggregate, the calculator checks your Intermediate percentage against the program minimum (50% for most BS programs, 60% for engineering and Pharm-D), flags the 33% NTS minimum for engineering, shows the NAT score you need for any target aggregate, gives a what-if table of NAT scores and lets you copy a share link with all your marks filled in.
