Students with an annual family income of:

• Less than INR 10 lakh (for UG programmes),

If you meet this criterion, please indicate your interest in the application form. 

Note: Requesting a scholarship does not guarantee financial support. Scholarships are awarded solely at the discretion of the University. 

We encourage you to appear for the first round of admission tests, as the scholarship process involves multiple steps, including the submission and verification of financial documents. Starting early ensures timely review and completion of all formalities.

2. Submission of documents:

   You must provide income details of all earning family members, including salary, pension, rent, agriculture, business, investments, commissions, etc.

   Late or incomplete submissions will not be considered. Please ensure all documents are ready in advance.
5. Review and assessment: 
   The University’s Scholarship Committee will review the application and may contact you for clarifications or additional information.
6. Verification process: 
   A third-party agency will independently verify all financial details and documents submitted. Any discrepancies may lead to withdrawal of admission at any stage.
7. Final decision: 
   All decisions regarding financial assistance are at the discretion of the University and will be final and binding.
