Cadet colleges located in Sui, Pishin, Mastung, Panjgur, Jafarabad, Kohlu, Turbat, Nushki, Ormara and Awaran now accommodate over 3,000 students, reflecting a surge in demand for quality education.
The University of Turbat alone has enrolled around 3,400 students, while Makran Medical College hosts about 500 MBBS students.
Officials note that established institutions in Quetta, including Government Science College, Sardar Bahadur Khan Women’s College and Degree College Quetta Cantt, continue to draw large numbers of students each year.
