Merit Cum Means Scholarship for Professional and Technical Courses Guidelines - Summary

The Merit Cum Means Scholarship for Professional and Technical Courses is designed to offer vital financial assistance to deserving students from minority communities, enabling them to pursue their dreams in professional and technical fields. This scholarship is applicable for studies in India at recognized Government or private institutions, which are transparently chosen and announced by the relevant State Government or Union Territory Administration. The scholarship funds a wide range of technical and professional courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

Eligibility Criteria for the Scholarship

To be eligible for this scholarship, students must have obtained at least 50% marks or an equivalent grade in their latest final examination. Additionally, the total annual income of their parents or guardians from all sources should not exceed Rs. 2.50 lakh.

Conditions for Receiving the Scholarship

Students who gain admission through a competitive examination can apply for this scholarship.
Financial support is available for those enrolling in graduate or postgraduate technical and professional courses at recognized institutions. The admission fee, course fee, and maintenance allowance for the scholarship year will be directly transferred to the bank accounts of the selected students.
Students admitted without a competitive exam may also apply for the scholarship, provided they have secured at least 50% marks in their last qualifying examination at the higher secondary or graduation level (for Fresh Scholarship only). Selection for these students will strictly follow merit-based criteria.
An Income Certificate from a competent authority in the State or UT Government is required from the parent or guardian of the student.
If the student is 18 years or older, a Self-Certified Community Certificate must be provided; otherwise, a Community Certificate signed by their parent or guardian is needed.
For renewal applicants, the continuation of the scholarship depends on obtaining at least 50% marks in the previous year’s examinations, which includes each semester or trimester, as long as they continue in the same course at the same institute.
Both hostellers and day scholars will receive a maintenance allowance.
The scholarship will be terminated if a student does not secure 50% marks in their last annual examination.
No family can receive the scholarship for more than two students across all scholarship schemes for minorities managed by this Ministry.
Students must ensure regular attendance, with specific criteria determined by the competent authority of their institutions.
