The college offers Matriculation as well as GCE 'O' Levels to the students, including those from overseas.[8]
History
Cadet College, Hasan Abdal was the first Cadet college in Pakistan in 1952.[1] It was established by the Punjab government and initiated by General Muhammad Ayub Khan (then Commander-in-Chief of the Pakistan Army) to serve as a feeder institution to the Services Academies.[1] For this purpose, military wings were started in 1952 at Government College, Sahiwal, and Islamia College, Peshawar. When the present buildings were completed in April 1954, these military wings were transferred to Hasan Abdal and the new college opened as Punjab Cadet College, with Hugh Catchpole as the founding Principal.[5][2][3] In 1960, the government created a Board of Governors to exercise administrative control over the college. The members of the board include the Honorable Governor of Punjab — Chairman Board of Governors, Chairman POF’s Board — Vice Chairman, Commissioner, Rawalpindi Division (Member), Secretary, Finance Dept, Govt of Punjab - Member, Secretary School, Education Dept, Govt of Punjab — Member and Principal, Cadet College Hasanabdal — Member.[9] Since then, it has been known as Cadet College Hasanabdal.

Student life
Students attending Cadet College, Hasan Abdal, are called Cadets.
The college prepares boys for the secondary school and intermediate examinations conducted by the Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education Rawalpindi, and also for the General Certificate of Education 'O' Levels and 'A' Levels, which follow a similar format to the GCSEs and 'A' levels used in the UK.[11] Some cadets study for Matriculation or F.Sc. (both pre-medical and pre-engineering). English, Urdu, Islamiyat, Pakistan Studies, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology are compulsory at each level; some other subjects (e.g. Computer Science) are offered within the different levels.
Fitness activities include gymnastics, jogging, and athletics. Sports time is held in the evenings on weekdays. Cadets take part in sports such as basketball, field hockey, football, horse riding, squash, swimming, tennis, and volleyball. Students are also taught drill.
Classes are conducted in the morning and preps (individual silent study periods) at night. The routine is a structured daily regime to promote maximum performance by the students.
