Scholarship Exam Details

The Chief Minister Merit Scholarship Scheme in Punjab is specifically designed to support brilliant students studying in Government Colleges across the state. For the 2026-27 session, the scholarship offers a 70% to 100% tuition fee waiver. The waiver is stratified based on marks: students scoring between 60-70% get a 70% concession, 70-80% get 80%, 80-90% get 90%, and students scoring above 90% marks get a full 100% tuition fee waiver. This scheme is unique because it targets meritorious students who might not fall under the traditional SC/OBC Post-Matric categories but still need financial relief due to high academic achievement. It serves as a major incentive for top-rankers to choose state government colleges for their UG and PG studies
