There is no separate portal for scholarship application, students. The students who applied automatically are eligible for the scholarship if their family income is between INR 80L and INR 85L per year.

The Princeton University acceptance rate for the class of 2028 stood at just 4.6%, suggesting that of every 100 students who apply to Princeton, only 4-5 students are likely to be accepted. This means that the admission criteria for Princeton University are extremely selective. Moreover, the acceptance rate has been dropping for the last few years, pointing to growing competition for aspirants.  

The Princeton University acceptance rate for international students is about 2.1%, around half of the regular admission rate, meaning that Princeton is even more selective about its international applicants.
