Mukhyamantri Shiksha Protsahan Yojana(MMSPY)
Overview
About MMSPY
Mukhyamantri Shiksha Protsahan Yojana is a Jharkhand government scheme that pays for coaching so students can prepare for national entrance examinations. It is run by the Directorate of Higher Education under the Department of Higher and Technical Education, Government of Jharkhand, with tuition delivered through empanelled coaching centres.
The support is a composite benefit rather than a plain cash award. A selected student receives free coaching at an approved centre and a fixed monthly allowance towards living costs for the duration of the course, which is intended to keep families from footing the fees that competitive-exam coaching usually carries.
The scheme is aimed at Jharkhand's own students, with residence in the state and family income among the conditions that decide who is selected. It covers preparation for engineering and medical entrance tests through JEE and NEET, law admissions through CLAT, and other national-level competitive examinations. The precise income ceiling, seat numbers and other criteria are set out in the scheme's eligibility terms.
