NEET Scholarship in Karnataka: Up to 100% Tuition + Hostel at St. Mary’s
NEET preparation is a two-year academic commitment for most students entering after Class 10. At St. Mary’s, selected eligible students with strong academic potential can be considered for scholarships of up to 100% on tuition fees and hostel fees in the applicable NEET pathway.
Current scholarship cycle: Academic Year 2027–28
What can strengthen a NEET scholarship application?
A scholarship should identify students who have both academic potential and the discipline to sustain NEET preparation.
Biology and Science strength
Consistent performance in Science and especially Biology-related learning supports the transition to PCB/PCMB and NEET preparation.
Physics readiness
NEET aspirants often need structured Physics problem solving; strong fundamentals or clear potential matter.
Academic consistency
A stable school record can demonstrate study discipline beyond one isolated exam score.
Assessment performance
Where an applicable scholarship/admission assessment is used, the score may determine the level of scholarship.
Relevant achievements
Olympiad, talent-search or academic achievements can support the profile where current scholarship rules recognise them.
Residential requirement
Outstation students can ask for hostel scholarship consideration at the same time as tuition support.
What “up to 100% NEET scholarship” can mean at St. Mary’s
The final scholarship is student-specific. Ask for the fee statement, not only the percentage.
| Component | Possible scholarship support | What to verify |
|---|---|---|
| Tuition / academic fee | Partial scholarship up to 100% for selected eligible students. | Awarded percentage and the fee base to which it applies. |
| Hostel fee | Partial scholarship up to 100% for selected eligible residential students. | Residential availability, fee heads included and duration. |
| NEET preparation | Scholarship applies only as defined for the selected programme. | Which academic/coaching components are included in the programme fee. |
| Miscellaneous costs | Not automatically assumed to be covered. | Books/materials, exam charges, deposits, personal expenses and any exclusions. |
A NEET scholarship should sit inside a strong academic system
For a serious aspirant, free or discounted education is valuable only when the programme is capable of improving performance.
- Check how NCERT Biology is revised and tested repeatedly.
- Ask how Physics weakness is identified and repaired.
- Understand the frequency and quality of cumulative and full-syllabus tests.
- See how board/senior-secondary academics are coordinated with NEET preparation.
If hostel is required
For residential students, academic routine and hostel environment become one system.
- Study-hour supervision
- Doubt/support access
- Meals, sleep and recovery
- Parent communication and mentoring

“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 NEET / Grade 11–12 pathway; academic and admission eligibility still apply.
- Scholarship seats and hostel support may be limited by the current admission cycle and residential capacity.
