Official Website Check (1 November 2026)
The ad prints www.joinpakarmy.gov.pk and a QR code. We opened the portal on 1 November 2026: its “Now recruiting” list showed only two online courses, PMA 159 Long Course and Recruitment as a Soldier. The JCO Army Education Corps course was not listed for online application yet.
That matches the ad, which tells candidates to register in person at the ASRC. Check the portal again in the coming days in case an online page is added.
What Is Not Confirmed
- Number of vacancies and ASRC-wise quotas: not printed.
- Pay and allowances: not printed. Ask at the ASRC.
- Written exam date and venue: given by the selection centre.
- Online registration: the official portal did not list this course when we checked.
- Marks required in BSc: not printed.
Karna / Nahi Karna
Karna:
- Go in person to a genuine Army Selection & Recruitment Centre with all originals and attested copies.
- Check joinpakarmy.gov.pk for updates.
- Prepare English, Urdu, Islamiat, GK and History, plus your chosen science subject.
- Keep fitness and height requirements in mind before you go.
Nahi karna:
- Do not pay anyone. Army recruitment is free and the ad mentions no fee. Some third-party websites ask for an “apply fee” through Easypaisa or WhatsApp: that is a scam.
- Do not give documents to an agent or “recruiter” who promises a seat.
- Do not trust a WhatsApp number that claims to sell JCO positions.
- Do not apply if you are outside the age limits or below 5 ft 6 in: you will be rejected at the centre.
