I am a 2nd year B.Tech student from Kerala. Last year I had applied for this scholarship but was rejected with the reason that 90% mark is required for the higher secondary examination. The basic requirement given the eligibility criteria is 50% marks. I got 84% marks. Would there be any results if I apply for the scholarship this year?
HOW CAN I GET DOCUMENT FORMAT FOR RENEWAL OF MERIT CUM MEANS SCHOLARSHIP? I'M A B.TECH STUDENT.
What is the amount of the scholarship for BTech and MTech students??
How can I apply?
