Nearpeer's First Ever Physical Campus in Muzaffarabad, Azad Kashmir

Nearpeer and Scholars College: A New Era of Education for AJK Students

At Nearpeer, we’ve always believed that education should be accessible to everyone, no matter where they are. It’s with this belief that we’re excited to announce a significant partnership with Scholars College of Sciences & IT, Muzaffarabad. This collaboration is more than just an agreement—it’s a step toward empowering the talented students of Azad Jammu & Kashmir (AJK) by providing them with world-class, tech-driven educational resources.

What This Partnership Means for AJK Students

With this partnership, students at Scholars College will now have the opportunity to access Nearpeer’s innovative learning platform, specially designed to help them prepare for major entry tests like MDCAT, ECAT, and more.

Through Nearpeer, students will benefit from:

1. Recorded video lectures by expert instructors
2. Practice quizzes and assignments to test their knowledge
3. Live sessions for real-time learning and problem-solving
4. Study notes and topic summaries
5. Progress tracking via Nearpeer’s advanced Learning Management System (LMS)

But that’s not all. This partnership is focused on making learning more personalised, helping students identify their weaknesses, and turning those into strengths to improve their overall performance.

Driven by Vision and Experience

The signing ceremony was a special moment for Mr Shahrukh Swati, the co-founder of Nearpeer, who shared the motivation behind this partnership. He said:

“I’ve personally benefitted from technology throughout my academic and professional journey. This partnership with Scholars Institute is our way of ensuring that students in Muzaffarabad can do the same. With the right tools, guidance, and support, we can help these bright young minds succeed in their exams.”

Shahrukh also praised the leadership of Scholars College, which has taken a bold step to become a leader in educational technology in the region.

Why AJK? Why Now?

Education in remote areas like AJK has always faced its challenges, but with the right tools, we can change that. AJK is home to countless bright students, and it’s time they got access to the same opportunities as those in more developed areas.

This partnership aims to bring world-class digital education to students who have the potential but lacked the resources. We’re not just helping students individually; we’re investing in the region’s future by providing opportunities for growth, learning, and success.

What’s Next for AJK Students?

This is just the beginning of an exciting journey. In the coming weeks, Nearpeer and Scholars College will:

1. Start onboarding students and introducing them to the platform
2. Launch academic programs to help students prepare for their entry tests
3. Collect feedback to keep improving the platform and experience

We’re committed to continuously enhancing the student experience and ensuring that every student has the resources they need to succeed.

Looking Toward the Future

This partnership is an important step toward creating a brighter future for AJK students. We are proud to work alongside Scholars College and are excited about what lies ahead. Together, we will break barriers, enhance education, and empower students to achieve their full potential.

Let’s shape the future—together.
