The University offers both, generous merit scholarships and need-based financial aid to support meritorious students from all walks of life. Our fellowships, grants and need-based scholarships acknowledge both stellar academic achievements and ensure financial assistance to those who are not able to afford quality education at Ahmedabad.
Ahmedabad University is committed to bringing the best students to the University regardless of their ability to pay. We ensure that any student who needs financial aid to attend Ahmedabad University receives a Need-Based Scholarship to cover the gap between the educational cost and the student’s financial circumstances. We see the Need-Based Scholarships as a partnership between your family and the University to ensure that you are able to receive an excellent undergraduate education at Ahmedabad University. 80 per cent of our students who apply for financial aid receive Need-Based Scholarships of varying amounts, depending on their family’s financial circumstances. If you wish to apply for a Need-Based Scholarship you may indicate this on your application for admission.
Applications received within a stipulated date, as specified by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions and Financial Aid, are automatically eligible for consideration for the award of the Fellowships and Scholarships.
Students from diverse backgrounds are provided the opportunity to gain an education at Ahmedabad University through Need-Based Scholarships. Do not let the cost of an Ahmedabad education deter you from applying. Over 80 per cent of students who apply for financial aid to cover the costs of their education receive support from Ahmedabad University.
The final decision on Need-Based Scholarships is based on an assessment of the family income, expenditure patterns, assets and a personal visit to the family residence/business by an independent audit agency.
Please Note: In case a student qualifies for both, an Academic and a Need-Based Scholarship, the Academic Scholarship will be awarded first, and the Need-Based Scholarship will include the balance (if any).
