History
The exact date of the inception of the Pakistan Student League at the University of Virginia (PSL) is uncertain, although it is believed that the organization was formed around 10 years ago in 1995 incorporated by a few international students who felt the need for a representation of Pakistani amongst the UVa community.
Since its inception the PSL has merely been a mutual effort of a few students and has been unable to foster growth for the organization amongst its members as well as the UVa community at large.
