Shiv Nadar University introduces new scholarships; one for rural students
100 percent fee waiver
Shiv Nadar University has announced introduction of two new scholarships at undergraduate level from 2017-2018 session. The two new scholarships, Gifted Student Scholarship and Rural Student Scholarship, are merit based and need based.
With introduction of these two scholarships, the university will be spending Rs 35 crore in total towards scholarships.
Elaborating the idea behind these scholarships, Dr SN Balakrishnan, Chancellor, Shiv Nadar University said, “As a research-led and multidisciplinary university, our endeavor is to create an unparalleled academic ecosystem that develops the full potential of students – enabling them to become future leaders, equipped with excellent skill-sets and a sense of social commitment and responsibility. This year, we have launched specialized scholarship programs which are need-based as well as merit-based to attract the best talent and also offer opportunities of a world-class education to the most deserving underprivileged students.”
