Aslaam O Aliakum!
I have recently done BS ENG (Hons) Linguistics and Literature from BZU, Multan. I have got 3rd position in BZU, having CGPA 3.57/4.00. I also appeared in NTS GAT General Test which was held in 09 Jan, 2011 and i secured 72 marks in it. Can i apply for M.Phil in English in your department having degree of linguistics, not literature?
I want to take admission in M.Phil Program. Please tell me about program and fee structure. I want to know that when will you advertise for the MS / M.Phil programs. Thanks.
