www.bolsd.in : Board of Open Learning School Government Scholarship
Government of India Scholarships
The Government of India offers scholarships and fellowships to international students wishing to study in India in various programmes and disciplines. Scholarships are available also for research work and non-formal courses (Religion, Classical Music, Dance and Crafts). While there are many types of scholarships offered to foreign students, the following scholarship schemes are available to students from Poland.
Cultural Exchange Programme
http://www.bolsd.in/scholarship.php
60 Scholarships under the ICCR scheme are offered annually for undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in Performing as well as Visual Arts. Subjects include Indian Classical Music, Dance, Painting and Sculpture. Facilities for doing research work in these fields are also available. Candidates from any country can apply.
Hindi Scholarship from the Kendriya Hindi Sanstan, Agra
Three scholarships are offered under this scheme every year. The selected students are provided international air fare, travel within India, living allowance, accommodation and free tuition.
Terms and Conditions of Various Schemes
Under its scholarship schemes, ICCR pays monthly living allowance and annual Contingent Grant. It also pays all compulsory tuition fees charged by the universities institutions. Thesis and dissertation charges are fully reimbursed upto certain limit and 50% after that limit.
Accommodation Charges: Students staying in hostel in universities will have their hostel room rents including water, electricity and other charges reimbursed to them. Students not staying in a hostel would be given an accommodation allowance of Rs. 1,000/- per month. In order to qualify for this accommodation allowance, students are required to produce a certificate from the university authorities that hostel accommodation has not been provided to them.
How to Apply for a Scholarship
Applications can be sent the Embassy of India in Poland through the Government of Poland. These are forwarded to ICCR for final selection and placement. Direct applications from candidates cannot be considered by ICCR. Application Forms can be collected from the Embassy of India, Warsaw. While filling in the forms, the candidate must specify the course he wishes to pursue such as i) certificate/diploma ii) undergraduate degree iii) postgraduate degree iv) doctoral research work only. Candidates are also advised to consult the Handbook of Indian Universities available with the Embassy to ensure the availability of their choice of a course in India. The application forms should include the required number of copies of educational certificates along with three copies of passport-size photographs.
Medical and AIDS Test
Medical examination and production of a medical certificate indicating fitness to undertake studies in India are required. In addition, a medical test for AIDS has been made mandatory for all international students (self financing as well as government scholarship holders) coming to study in India.
Visa Regulations
All international students wishing to come to India, on self financing or under a scholarship scheme, are required to get a students\' vise from the Indian Mission, Warsaw. Students coming on a self financing basis should produce confirmed letters of admission from universities or recognised colleges and institutions in India for obtaining the regular student visa. Those coming to India on tourist or any other type of visa, cannot get their visa changed to Student Visa once they are in India.
Some Important Advice to International Students
Before Departure from his Country
It is advisable to find out from the nearest Indian diplomatic mission about travel, health, and other documents that are required before coming to India. The documents listed below may be necessary for international students coming to India:
• Valid Passport
• Confirmed letter of acceptance or a provisional admission certificate from a university or a college or institution
• Proof of availability of sufficient funds for the duration of studies in India for self financing international students
• Student Visa - Regular or Provisional
• Health certificate and AIDS-free certificate
Information regarding customs and baggage rules is available with the Indian diplomatic missions abroad. Students are advised to consult these rules before coming to India.
It may be noted that as a general rule no financial assistance is available from the limited resources of Indian universities or colleges. A student should also not count on the possibility of getting jobs and earning some money during vacation periods. International students are therefore, urged to make adequate financial arrangements from their home country for the entire period of stay in India. Scholars under the Government of India scholarship schemes will however, receive a monthly maintenance allowance.
