from outside Lahore. Government College University has the distinction

for boys and one for girls. lqbal Hostel (built in 1891) and
Quaid-e-Azam Hostel (built in 1993) accommodate about 150 and 200
Intermediate students respectively. New Hostel (built in 1937) houses
about 400 Degree students. Girls Hostel (built in 1975) accommodates
about 50 girl students.
GC
University Lahore has taken the initiative to establish GCU Faculty
Mess for visiting faculty and officers of the other
universities and institutions. Lodging and messing facilities
are available in the newly established GCU Faculty Mess.
