The BPL Scholarship (Below Poverty Line Scholarship) is designed to support students from families living below the poverty line to ensure they can continue education without financial burden. This scholarship is implemented through various central government schemes and departments and is often linked with NSP (National Scholarship Portal) and state portals.
The main objective is to reduce dropout rates, promote education among economically weaker families, and provide equal opportunity to students who are academically capable but financially weak. The scholarship generally covers:
-
Tuition fees
-
Maintenance allowance
-
Books and study material support
It is available for school students, college students, and professional course students depending on scheme category (Pre-Matric, Post-Matric, Top Class, etc.).
Selection is mostly merit + income based, and in many cases no separate entrance exam is conducted. Students must submit income certificate, caste certificate (if applicable), Aadhaar, and bank details.
