Single Girl Child Scholarships -2013

Scholarships for the single girl child

The scholarship is ideal for families that have adopted the small-family norms of a single child, particularly a girl child.  The scholarship will compensate for educational costs, particularly at the higher education level.

The government has already introduced fee waivers to the single child of a family from Class 6 to 12.  In addition, the candidate is entitled to a monthly scholarship for completion of her degree course. Further, female students who successfully complete an undergraduate programme will be awarded a scholarship for higher education too. These scholarships will be sanctioned by the University Grants Commission.

At the UG level, scholarships will be awarded to those girls, who have completed Class 10 under the CBSE board. The scholarship will cover the expenses for Class 11 and 12. The scholarship is also extended to degree courses selected by the candidate, irrespective of whether it is a professional or non-professional course

Scholarships for single female students are awarded by the University Grants Commission of India (UGC). These scholarships are available for non-professional, postgraduate courses only.  Scholarships will be given to candidates who have been admitted to a Master’s degree programme that is recognised by the UGC. The candidate’s age should not exceed 30 years at the time of admission.

This year the advertisement has been released and the last date is 30th September,2013
