A single scholarship label can hide two different application routes. Under PM YASASVI, Top Class School Education and Top Class College Education have their own eligibility, institutions and financial limits. Start by choosing the route matching your present level of study.
| Eligible communities | OBC, EBC and DNT students, subject to the relevant component’s conditions. |
|---|---|
| College student deadline | 31 October 2026, as shown on NSP. |
| School student deadline | 30 November 2026, as shown on NSP. |
| Where to apply | The appropriate school or college scheme entry on the National Scholarship Portal. |
The college guidelines linked by NSP require a prescribed full-time course at a notified institution and annual family income up to ₹2.5 lakh. Admission alone does not secure an award: institutional slots and selection rules also matter.
They provide tuition and non-refundable fee support, with a ₹2 lakh yearly ceiling for private institutions and a separate ₹3.72 lakh ceiling for specified private flying courses. Listed additional support includes ₹3,000 monthly living expenses, ₹5,000 yearly books/stationery assistance and a one-time computer package capped at ₹45,000. Check the current specifications for your course before budgeting.
The school component covers eligible students in identified Top Class Schools from Class 9 to Class 12. Its linked guidelines specify household income below ₹2.5 lakh. Support for school-required charges is capped at ₹75,000 annually for Classes 9–10 and ₹1.25 lakh for Classes 11–12. Do not apply the college allowance table to a school application.
At the time of checking, NSP’s fresh school-application announcement excluded Rajasthan, Keralam and Karnataka temporarily and asked students from those states to wait. Check that live announcement before attempting submission; the restriction may change.
Ask your institution which exact component and institution entry applies. Prepare the income and community evidence it requests, then confirm the fee record against your admission details. Keep a copy of the final submission and ask the nodal officer how to track verification. A request for clarification should be addressed promptly rather than treated as an award decision.
Read the live specifications and announcements before applying, especially if a deadline or rule has changed. JobJet is an independent information website; it does not sanction scholarships or collect applications.
