How much scholarship does a student of dual degree from IIEST Shibpur get? Is there any merit based scholarship for the general category students?

AC
Arindam Chakraborty Posted On : March 30th, 2021

First of all, the scholarships are not generally given, considering the scholars of IIEST. This should be kept in mind always.

The amount of money in the scholarships and the payment mode may differ in different cases. It can be paid regularly until the completion of the degree, or as a one-time payment. But you must know that there are subjects and the criteria to get the scholarships, which should be maintained.

Many former students have pointed out that the Global Alumni Association of Bengal Engineering and Science University, Shibpur, frequently funds the stipend, in which this institute sometimes acts as a whole or sometimes as an individual. Still, everything depends on the criteria, which is not always the academic merit.

In the following some criteria are listed, which are normally maintained:

  • Academic Record
  • Some Co-curricular activities
  • Sports or Athletic records
  • Financial Background of the student (if you are from an economically poor background, then it is subjected to the lowest academic criteria)
  • Subject-based performances

However, more other criteria are not always listed but the college administration before the admission process.

Besides these institutional scholarships, there are also MHRD sponsored scholarships. These are well-documented, and you can get the details from the MHRD website; thereby, much explanation is not required in this regard.

You must check whether your parents/guardians are qualified to receive Income Tax reimbursement or the returns to support educational costs before applying for scholarships.

Are there any scholarships in IIIT Guwahati?

SS
Sunil Singh Posted On : May 6th, 2021
Studied B.Tech ECE

My brother has studied here and as per him, fee waiver scholarships are actually not a part of IIIT Guwahati. My brother has not encountered anyone in requirement of a scholarship program held by IIIT Guwahati. 

At the same, contrary to any scholarship programs, there are several students in the institute who have availed themselves of education loans for further studies. They are managing circumstances at their personal levels, and none of their financial weights are provided or funded by the institution itself.

You can get in touch with the administration and get hold of any crucial information. They can tell you about any scholarship program actually run and funded by the institute. They will provide you valuable information more than anybody in the student area.

In a nutshell, IIIT Guwahati does not receive any known funds from the government for meeting recurring expenditure (or in particular, any running expenses).

Joining NIT Jamshedpur is the most worthwhile decision you will always feel. With a small campus and high placements, NIT Jamshedpur makes a huge difference when compared to other NIT’s and other governmental colleges. It is situated in the TATA town which plays a huge role in placements as the TATA motors and TATA powers pick core branches students. And again, the fees here are quite affordable and expenses are less.

Now, coming to your question, you will be given a fee concession on the basis of your family's annual income. You will get a fee concession if your family income is below a certain amount.

  • If you have your family income less than or near to 1 Lakh, your full tuition fees will be remitted. You will only have to take care of the hostel and mess expenses.
  • For annual income in between 1 Lakh and 5 lakhs, your 2/3rd of the tuition fee will get remitted/semester. But same you have to hold the expenses for hostel and mess.

Note: During fee submission, you will have to pay the whole fee for the semester. At the end of the year, your tuition fees will be remitted for both semesters together.

You might have got an overview of how worthy it is to join NIT Jamshedpur if one opts for it. With Fewer fees, easily accessible things, and in the main town of Tata which helps in easy placements. It’s all good to go here.

Is the IEP at Thapar University worth the money invested? Does Thapar University offer scholarships on the basis of needs or performance?

AA
Atmanand Anand Posted On : August 10th, 2021
Studied at Pune University (2019)

During the admission in the IEP, students are expected to choose a second stream as a backup if they are unable to secure a seat for the IEP. Since the seats are limited, not every student opts for IEP. 

Also, if you are financially secure then you might as well go for it without any hesitation. There is a possibility that you might not be able to secure a seat for IEP and end up with the second stream after two years which you do not likely prefer to opt for.

What are my chances of getting into IIM Bangalore with 84/68/87, 2 international scholarships and 1 National Scholarship?

RR
Rajnish Roy Posted On : July 27th, 2021
MBA from IIM Calcutta (2019)

One of my friends is an alumnus of IIM Bangalore and here is what he had to say.

If you are a general category student then it will be difficult to get a call back from IIM B. It is difficult to say anything specifically since you have not mentioned your category and whether you have any work experience or not.

It’s good that you have scholarships. However, it does not add anything to your profile. Scholarships don’t feature as eligibility criteria for getting a call from IIM B.

It only takes into account academic credentials, work experience, CAT score, Gender diversity, and category.
