The Jyoti scholarship is a freeship for meritorious students from under-privileged backgrounds. It waives 100% of semester fees, other than a refundable security deposit of ₹20,000 paid at admission.
There are 51 places, open to students whose family income does not exceed ₹8 lakh a year. The freeship continues each year for students who maintain an SGPA or CGPA of at least 6.0.
Capable students from low-income families can study without paying fees.
