Overview
About VAY
Vikramaditya Yojna is a scholarship from the Department of Higher Education, Government of Madhya Pradesh. It is aimed at general-category students from economically weaker families in the state, a group that sits outside the reserved-category schemes.
The scheme provides annual financial assistance toward the cost of study. It is meant to help students who clear Class 12 but face money pressure stay in a graduation or diploma course instead of dropping out.
It is open to general-category students in Madhya Pradesh who study at a government or government-aided college and meet the scheme's marks and income conditions. The exact thresholds and the benefit figure sit with the official scheme details, and you apply through the state scholarship portal.
