Amount & Benefits
10th Pass Scholarship
If you passed 10th class from Bihar Board, you can apply here.
- First Division: get Rs. 10,000
- SC/ST students with Second Division: get Rs. 8,000
This money helps you keep studying after 10th.
Inter Pass Scholarship (Rs. 25,000)
Girls who passed 12th class can get Rs. 25,000 under Kanya Utthan Yojana. It goes straight into your bank account. This helps you continue studying without money worries.
Graduation Scholarship (Rs. 50,000)
This is the biggest amount. Girls who finish graduation from a Bihar university can get up to Rs. 50,000. It comes in parts, not all at once. Your college needs to upload your result first, so this one takes a bit longer than the others. Just be patient.
