What Is an IUB Roll Number Slip?

A roll number slip is an official document issued by the Islami University of Bahawalpur Examination Department. It serves as your entry permit to the examination hall. Without a valid roll number slip, you will not be allowed to sit in the exam — no exceptions.

The slip contains your exam roll number, center information, subject details, and exam dates. It is distinct from your registration number and is freshly issued for each examination session.

When Are IUB Roll Number Slips Issued?

Roll number slips are typically made available on the official IUB website approximately 2–3 weeks before the commencement of exams. For supplementary exams, they may be issued with shorter notice. It is critical to check the website regularly once the exam date sheet is released.

Tips for Using Your Roll Number Slip

  • Print two copies: Keep one at home and carry one to the exam. If your slip is damaged or lost on exam day, the backup saves you.
  • Laminate or store safely: Protect your slip from water and tears.
  • Verify all details: Before exam day, confirm that your name, roll number, and exam center are correct. Report any discrepancy to the Examination Department immediately.
  • Do not alter the slip: Any tampering with the roll number slip can lead to disqualification.
  • Arrive early: Use the exam center address on your slip to plan your commute. Arrive at least 30 minutes before the exam starts.

Collecting a Physical Roll Number Slip

In some cases, especially for newly enrolled students or when online systems face issues, physical roll number slips are distributed at the department office or examination branch. Keep an eye on official announcements and check with your department coordinator if you are unable to download your slip online.
