At Azim Premji University, we are committed to ensuring that financial constraints do not come in the way of a student’s education. We offer need-based scholarships to a limited number of students each year. This support can help cover tuition and accommodation expenses, and in exceptional cases, food expenses as well.

Scholarship is awarded after a careful review of submitted documents and in accordance with the University’s Financial Aid Policy. As the number of applicants often exceeds the available aid, we may not be able to support all eligible students. All decisions are made at the sole discretion of the University.

If we find any documentation to be incorrect or falsified, we reserve the right to withdraw the offer of admission.

Eligibility 

Students with an annual family income of less than INR 10 lakhs are eligible to apply for different levels of scholarships. If you meet this criterion and would like to be considered, please indicate this in your application form.
(Note : Requesting scholarship does not guarantee support; it serves only as indicative information. Scholarships are awarded solely at the discretion of the University)

We encourage you to appear for the first round of admission entrance test, as the scholarship process involves multiple steps, including the submission and review of financial documents and an independent verification. Starting the process early helps ensure that we have sufficient time to assess applications and complete all formalities in a timely manner.

5. Review and assessment: The University’s Scholarship committee will review the application and may contact you for clarification or additional information.
6. Verification process: A third-party agency will independently verify the financial details and documents submitted. Any discrepancy will lead to withdrawal of admission offer at any given point of time.
7. Final decision: All decisions regarding financial assistance are made at the discretion of the University and will be final and binding.
