Post Matric Scholarship for Scheduled Caste Students

এটি কী?

This is the government's largest scholarship for Scheduled Caste students at the post-matric stage, that is from Class XI onwards through to professional and postgraduate courses. Its stated purpose is to lift the share of SC students who go on to higher education, with the poorest households treated as the priority group.

The support has two parts: reimbursement of the compulsory non-refundable fees charged by the institution, including tuition, and an academic allowance towards other study costs. Students with disabilities receive an additional allowance on top.

The scheme is centrally sponsored rather than centrally run. The Centre and the states share the cost, and it is your state or union territory government that selects beneficiaries, based on where you are domiciled. Scholarships are only for courses studied inside India.

সম্ভাব্য সুবিধা

Reimbursement of compulsory non-refundable course fees including tuition, an academic allowance, and a 10 per cent additional allowance for students with disabilities. Exact rupee amounts vary by course group and could not be confirmed from a readable official source - see the note below.
