Sainik School Sujanpur Tihra Scholarship Scheme(SSSTSS)
Overview
About SSSTSS
The Sainik School Sujanpur Tihra Scholarship Scheme is a state scholarship run by the Education Department, Government of Himachal Pradesh. It goes to students who belong to Himachal Pradesh and are studying at Sainik School Sujanpur Tihra, one of the Ministry of Defence residential schools.
The school sits at Tira Sujanpur in Hamirpur district, Himachal Pradesh. It was inaugurated on 2 November 1978 by the then President of India, Neelam Sanjeeva Reddy, and follows the CBSE curriculum from Class 6 to Class 12. The Ministry of Defence administers it, and cadets are prepared for the armed forces and other careers.
The benefit is cash, so the state meets part of the cost of a Sainik School education for eligible bonafide residents of Himachal Pradesh enrolled there. Beyond the scholarship amount, it also covers running costs such as a dietary allowance and a clothing allowance. The exact figures and conditions are set out in the scheme's official details.
It supports students in Classes 6 to 12 at Sainik School Sujanpur Tihra who are permanent residents of Himachal Pradesh. Support carries on through a student's years at the school as long as the renewal conditions are met. Confirm the current eligibility rules and the application window on the official portal before you apply.
