Institutional Scholarships
The Hindustan College of Arts &Science was founded by late Educationist, Philanthropist, and a great visionary Dr. K.C.G. Verghese in the year 1995. The Institution is committed to the goals of providing quality education in the field of higher education. Access to higher education is an important measure of progress, and pursuing the same in a top reputed college is often an expensive choice to make, especially if you are struggling to save up money, not only for fees but for accommodation and other living costs, College expenses can be very steep and sometimes unaffordable. We at HCAS do not want the cost of a college education to be a burden or stand in the way of the students success.
The college strongly supports economically challenged students through the scholarships provided by the government, non-government organizations and philanthropists. Inspired by Dr. Verghese’s vision “To make everyone a success and no man a failure,” the Management realizes its social responsibility to provide financial aid and scholarships to the deserving students to complete their higher education. In addition to this, the Management has launched a new scheme called “JAI HIND SCHOLARSHIP” for needy & deserving students.
The procedure of grant of scholarship by the management is clearly defined in the scholarship policy of the institution. Such scholarships may cover tuition and related expenses, as applicable, and as per the conditions defined by the Management. All the scholarships are subject to renewal based on the minimum attendance and academic performance specified as per the college rules and regulations.
