Post Matric Scholarship
The post-matric scholarship is that scholarship provided to the students who are good in studies and belong to the minority community. Minority community includes Muslim, Sikh, Christians, Buddhists, Jains, and Zoroastrians (Parsis). So, this law came in force in June 2016 by the Ministry of Minority Affairs (MOMA). This law was made in order to provide financial assistance to the weaker section of the society for their higher education. Higher Education here starts from class 11th to Ph.D. So, the financial assistance is restricted to the sum of ₹10,000 annually.
Eligibility for attaining the Scholarship
Only students belonging to minority communities (Muslim, Sikh, Christian, Buddhist, Jain, Zoroastrian/Parsi) are eligible.
The student must be studying in Class 11, Class 12, Graduation, Post-Graduation, M.Phil, Ph.D., or any technical/vocational course.
Must have secured at least 50% marks or equivalent grade in the previous qualifying examination.
The total annual family income (from all sources) must not exceed ₹2 lakh.
