Current scholarship cycle: Academic Year 2027–28
Pick the academic destination before optimising the scholarship
A scholarship can make a strong programme affordable, but it cannot make the wrong stream or study environment right for the student.
PCM + JEE
For engineering-focused students who are ready for deeper Mathematics, Physics and problem solving.
PCB/PCMB + NEET
For medical-focused students who need strong Biology, Chemistry, Physics and sustained revision.
Science pathway
For students who want senior-secondary Science and may still be deciding the exact entrance/degree route.
Commerce pathway
For students whose strengths and future goals fit Commerce and related higher-education pathways.
What to keep ready for a Class 11 scholarship enquiry
Class 10 marks / latest report
Share the most recent academic evidence available, even if final board results are pending.
Board details
State Board, CBSE, ICSE or another recognised board context helps interpret the marks correctly.
Preferred stream
Science, Commerce, PCM, PCB or PCMB preference helps route the application.
JEE / NEET goal
If competitive preparation is planned, mention it from the beginning.
Achievements
Include relevant Olympiad, talent-search, academic or competitive achievements.
Hostel requirement
Tell admissions whether the student needs residential accommodation and wants hostel scholarship consideration.
Class 11 scholarship: compare the final two-year value
| Comparison | Weak way to compare | Better way to compare |
|---|---|---|
| Scholarship headline | “Institute A gives 100%; Institute B gives 80%.” | Compare the exact fee base, covered components and final payable amount. |
| Hostel | Ignore residential cost until admission. | Include hostel, food and related charges from day one if the student is outstation. |
| Academic quality | Assume the cheapest option is automatically best. | Compare faculty, timetable, testing, mentoring and programme fit. |
| Duration | Look only at Grade 11 fees. | Confirm whether scholarship continues into Grade 12 and under what conditions. |
From enquiry to written scholarship offer
Enquire with student details
Start with the student name, Class 10 board, latest marks and preferred pathway.
Complete programme counselling
Confirm that the academic stream and entrance-preparation plan fit the student.
Complete applicable scholarship assessment
Follow the merit/assessment process communicated for the current intake.
Receive the awarded percentage
Ask for the actual scholarship percentage, not only “eligible for scholarship”.
Confirm tuition + hostel treatment
If hostel is required, make sure the residential scholarship is shown separately or clearly included.
Review continuation terms
Understand what is required to retain the award in Grade 12.
“Up to 100%” means the highest award is merit-based — it is not an automatic fee waiver
St. Mary’s may offer selected eligible students up to 100% scholarship on tuition fees and hostel fees. The final percentage depends on the student’s profile, performance in the applicable scholarship/admission assessment, programme availability and the scholarship rules communicated for the admission cycle.
- A 100% award is reserved for students who meet the highest scholarship criteria; other eligible students may receive partial scholarships.
- The exact amount, fee heads covered, duration and continuation conditions should be confirmed in the written scholarship offer before admission.
- Scholarship consideration does not by itself guarantee admission to the chosen Class 11 programme; academic and admission eligibility still apply.
- Scholarship seats and hostel support may be limited by the current admission cycle and residential capacity.
