The Reliance Foundation Scholarships programme has opened applications to award 5,000 undergraduate scholarships for the academic year 2023-24. Applications are open until 15 October 2023 to all first-year regular undergraduate students across all branches of study.
Reliance Foundation Scholarships aim to strengthen young people’s access to higher education. In December 2022, on the occasion of Dhirubhai Ambani’s 90th birth anniversary, Nita Ambani, Founder and chairperson of Reliance Foundation, announced Reliance Foundation’s significant commitment to support 50,000 students with scholarships over the next 10 years as part of her vision to empower youth for a better tomorrow.
The Reliance Foundation Undergraduate Scholarship selects students based on merit- cum-means criteria for undergraduate college education, to continue their studies without financial burden.
The Scholarships aim to enable students to become successful professionals and realise their dreams, unlocking their potential to lift themselves and their communities and contribute towards India’s future socio-economic development.
The Reliance Foundation Undergraduate Scholarships programme will award selected scholars a grant of up to Rs. 2 lakhs for the entire course of study. The scholars will also get to be a part of an enabling support system that equips them with skills for holistic development and a vibrant alumni network.
The programme encourages applications from girls and people with disabilities. Selection will be based on performance in an aptitude test, Class 12 marks, household income and other eligibility criteria.
