UP Scholarship

ADVERTISEMENT

The UP Scholarship program, launched by the Government of Uttar Pradesh, provides financial aid to students from economically weaker backgrounds. It covers pre-matric (Class 9 & 10), post-matric (Class 11 & 12), and higher education levels.

Managed by the Social Welfare, Minority Welfare, and Backward Class Welfare Departments, the scheme supports SC, ST, OBC, Minority, and General category students. Applications can be submitted online via the UP Scholarship Portal (scholarship.up.gov.in), with funds disbursed through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT).

This initiative helps reduce financial hurdles, encouraging students to complete their education and enhance skill development in the state.
