Chandigarh, October 31 In an effort to recognise meritorious students belonging to low-income families, the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Department of Higher Education, will provide 82,000 scholarships to Class XII students for graduate/post-graduate studies. This will be decided on the student’s performance in his Senior Secondary Examination or its equivalent, with a minimum aggregate of 80 per cent.

The scholarship titled “Central Sector Scheme of Scholarship for College and University Students” will provide students with financial assistance to meet their daily expenses while pursuing higher education.

It will be given to students in colleges and universities and also to those pursuing professional courses like medical, engineering among others.

The total number of scholarships will be divided among the state boards based on the population of the state, in the age group of 18-25 years, after segregating the share of the Central Board of Secondary Education and the Indian Certificate of Secondary Examination on the basis of number of students passing out from various boards in the country.

The detailed guidelines regarding the scheme can be viewed from the website www.cbse.nic.in. The last date for submitting of applications is November 5, 2008 for the CBSE candidates.
