Scholarships in Haryana
Haryana residents should head to the Har-Chatravratti portal for their scholarship needs. The state administration aggregates multiple departmental schemes here, streamlining the process for students from farming and lower-income backgrounds. Haryana places a strong emphasis on empowering students from rural backgrounds, particularly those hailing from agricultural families. Ensure that your Parivar Pehchan Patra (Family ID) is updated and error-free, as it is now mandatory for seamless scholarship processing in the state.
| Scholarship | Typical window | Amount | Income limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Post Matric Scholarship for SC/BC (Haryana) | Expected: Aug–Oct | Maintenance allowance plus fee reimbursement | ₹2.5 lakh/yr for SC applicants — BC limit unverified |
Scholarships for students in Haryana
Haryana's main state award on this page is the Post Matric Scholarship for SC and Backward Class students, which supports study after Class 10 for those from reserved categories and lower-income families. Applications are aggregated on the state portal noted above, and the state now links processing to the Parivar Pehchan Patra (Family ID), so that record needs to be accurate before you apply.
National schemes are linked just below and can be claimed in addition to the state award. The window shown is a cue to begin checking the portal, not a fixed closing date.
National scholarships Haryana students can also claim
These 10 schemes are funded by the central government rather than by Haryana, so students here can apply for them too. Open each one to check its eligibility rules, award amount and its own application window. Most run through the National Scholarship Portal.

Documents the Haryana schemes ask for
Arranging these early is the difference between applying and missing a window, because several are issued by an office on its own timetable. This list covers what the Haryana schemes above need on top of the documents the national schemes already require.
- Parivar Pehchan Patra (Family ID)
- Haryana Domicile Certificate
- Caste certificate (SC/BC)
- Fee receipt of the current course
- Bank account linked with Aadhaar
Why Haryana applications get rejected
Each of these has cost real applicants a scholarship they qualified for. They are specific to the Haryana schemes on this page, not the generic national-portal mistakes.
- Applying with an unverified Family ID, which causes the Har-Chhatravratti portal to reject the application outright.
- Entering a bank account number that is not linked to Aadhaar, preventing the DBT payment.
- Forgetting to submit the physical copy of the application form to the college, halting the institutional verification step.
