Scholarship
Schedule Caste Pre-Metric Scholarship Class 06 To 08(SCPMSC)
Overview
About SCPMSC
The Schedule Caste Pre-Metric Scholarship (Class 06 To 08) is a Rajasthan state scholarship for Scheduled Caste school students. The Government of Rajasthan started it in 1998 to encourage the schooling of Scheduled Caste children, and it is listed on the government's myScheme portal under the Education (Elementary and Secondary) Department as the nodal department.
It is a pre-matric award, meaning it supports students before the matriculation (class 10) stage. The scheme covers those studying in classes 6 to 8, the upper-primary years, and the support is paid as cash in the form of a monthly stipend. Eligibility is limited to students of the Scheduled Caste category who are studying in these classes; the department sets the detailed conditions and the stipend amount.
The stated purpose is to widen access to education for Scheduled Caste students by easing the cost of staying in school. Applications are made online through the Rajasthan government's single sign-on (RajSSO) system rather than at the school office.
