Scholarship 2017

Dear Friends

Belated Diwali Wishes from the XSA team. May this festival bring you and your family health, wealth and success.

It is the time of the year for the alumni to come together for the biggest fund raising till date for the scholarships. Last year, we gave scholarships worth of Rs. 6,50,000/- to 26 students. This year the number of awardees will be 28. We will require a sum of Rs. 7,00,000/-  for the scholarships. Once again, with your support, we are confident of raising this amount without much of a difficulty

To repeat, the salient points on the scholarship are:
- The students who were offered scholarship last year would continue to get the same in the current year (subject to them passing all the exams till date)
- The new students would be selected from the 2nd year batch
- The quantum of the scholarship is Rs 25,000/- for each student (28 Nos)
- The scholarship would be given annually till completion of course (subject to passing of all exams)
- The guidelines for student selection would be determined between XSA and the college
