Nalanda Scholarships 2015-16 :
NALANDA UNIVERSITY SHALL AWARD SCHOLARSHIPS EACH YEAR IN THE FORM OF TUITION FEES WAIVER TO OUTSTANDING CANDIDATES IN NEED OF FINANCIAL AID.

In order to support the outstanding students who need financial support, Nalanda University will provide tuition fee waiver (in some instances it may be full tuition waiver). The extent of fees waiver will be contingent on the outstanding nature of the application coupled with the financial background of the candidate.

Students wishing to avail financial support shall have to apply by filling out relevant fields in Application Form for admission. A candidate will be declared eligible for a partial or full tuition waiver on the basis of the deliberations of the Admissions Committee constituted for the said purpose. The Committee may conduct an interview with the candidate to determine their suitability for the scholarship. The committee would decide on the extent of financial support to the candidate after taking into consideration various parameters.

The decision of the committee will be final and no request for its review will be entertained.

For applying for scholarship, the following documents shall also be uploaded/submitted by the candidate along with the completed Application Form:
** Income tax return of the members of the family
** Other supporting documents (if any) viz. details of scholarship received previously

The scholarship will initially be granted for the first year only. The continuation of financial aid in subsequent years will depend on the academic performance of the student. If the student secures a CGPA of more than 8.0/10.0 in the first year, only then can they avail tuition waiver in the second year. In all cases, poorer academic performance may result in down-gradation or suspension of the scholarships/financial support. Additionally, apart from the academic performance, the conduct of the student in general during their period of study at the University will also account for the continuance of or the revoking of the scholarship in subsequent year(s). The scholarship after the first year may be revoked on the recommendations of the Dean of the School, owing to lack of attendance or any gross indiscipline and misconduct.

While the Nalanda University has a need based policy for giving financial support to students from economically lower families, it is not guaranteed that all applicants would necessarily receive a scholarship or financial support, as there are a limited number of scholarships to be offered to the aspirants applying to the Schools.
