Student review [#98406] for IT Management
at Virtual University of Pakistan

I didn’t come in with unrealistic expectations or anything but what I experienced was still shocking. Don’t believe their fake AI generated replies they leave on reviews on google or anywhere. I’ve dealt with their support myself as a former student and it’s obvious no one there understands proper English. Every response feels like copy paste nonsense written just to shut you up.
The study material is laughably outdated. I’m talking early 2000s outdated. As someone who has a business and does a lot of freelancing, I see what modern teams and a lot of companies actually use, this curriculum is embarrassing. While the rest of the world teaches python, modern tools, real world business applications, VU is stuck and teaches you obsolete concepts that are super irrelevant today.
When I showed this material to people I work with internationally, they literally laughed. Not at me but at how backward and pathetic the system still is in Pakistan.
The handouts are awful and its painfully obvious they weren’t written for Pakistani students at all. You can literally tell from the wording, examples and tone that the target audience is European and North American (US Canada etc). Its just copied material from foreign textbooks, badly edited and very poorly adapted. When they try to change things to make it sound “Pakistani”, the grammar falls apart lol, which makes it even more embarrassing. Clearly no one competent wrote or reviewed this.
The LMS is just as bad. In 2026, lectures are still dumped on YouTube like some random coaching center. The website crashes randomly and I’ve personally seen error messages in Chinese, which tells you how cheap and outsourced the whole thing is.
Its as bad as any government website in lumber 1 Pakistan. Especially if you’re waiting for results coz good luck. The moment traffic increases, their systems panic and crash.
Assignment and GDB checking are also super bad. Grades feel random and sometimes mood-based, feedback from their “qualified professors” also never makes sense. They also ask students to upload screenshots as “proof” of completed work at times because the university doesn’t even have basic systems to track assignments. Imagine paying tuition to an institution that runs on screenshots lol.
Honestly if you just want a piece of paper instead of actually learning something, go for it. This place is made exactly for people like you.
Outdated material, incompetent staff, broken systems, zero accountability. Based on my own experience I wouldn’t recommend Virtual University of Pakistan to anyone who values their time, money or future.
