Merit-based scholarships at Thapar University are given to students with strong academic performance. For first-year UG students, eligibility is based on Class 12 marks and JEE Main rank. From the second year onwards, students must maintain a high CGPA (usually 8.0+), with no backlogs, to continue the scholarship.

There is no income limit for merit-based scholarships.

  • You must have a bachelor's degree of at least 3 years in any discipline from a recognised university.

  • You need to have studied Mathematics either at the 10+2 level or during your graduation.

  • You should have at least 60% marks in aggregate in your bachelor's degree (55% for SC/ST).

  • Admission is based on merit (10th, 12th, and graduation marks).

In short: 3-year degree + maths at 12th or graduation + 60% (55% for reserved) is required for MCA at Thapar.
