Scholarship & Medals

The college offers financial assistance to the financial weak and meritorious students from students’ aid fund. Usually students from the BPL families are provided with this aid. However, students who are meritorious yet do not belong to BPL families also receive such aid if Students’ Aid Fund Committee deems it fit. It is primarily generated out of the Tuition Fees collected by the college. The following table displays the No. of beneficiaries in last four years:

##An important point to note here is that the no of beneficiaries and total amount disbursed show a downward trend, because from mid-2012-13 session, as per the Govt. order, the college authority had to return 50% of the Tuition Fees collected to the Govt. At the same time, the Govt. stopped permission for appointing new Part-time faculty and providing financial assistance for those. Hence, the college authority for maintaining academic standard had to appoint Guest faculty out of its own coffers. Moreover, due to regular superannuation of support/technical staff, casual non-teaching employees had to be appointed. All these factors led to a decline in the available fund for providing financial assistance to students. In special cases, on the basis of applications from students we provide lumpsum waiver of Course fees, though no free-ship is offered.
