Banaras Hindu University is Providing Scholarship of Rs. 6000 To Students

Banaras Hindu University, an Institution of Excellence under the Education Ministry's IoE program, has launched a new scholarship program to enroll overseas students. The "Scholarship to International Students" program is likewise aimed at attracting and encouraging more international students for enrolling at the university. 

The Motive Behind The Initiative

Foreign students will get Rs 6000 per month under the initiative, which will be renewed annually based on acceptable performance.

If a student is currently receiving a lower-value scholarship, he or she will be eligible for the difference.

Under the chairmanship of Vice-Chancellor Prof. Sudhir K Jain, the Governing Body of Institution of Eminence, BHU, decided to introduce a "Scholarship to International Students."

Vice-Chancellor Professor Sudhir K Jain has stated that the university community must endeavor to place BHU among the best universities in the world. This scholarship program is one of several initiatives aimed at achieving this goal.

About The BHU Scholarship

More overseas students are expected to enroll at BHU as a result of the program.

Students who have one or more scholarships at the time of admission and a monthly income of less than Rs 6000/- will be given a stipend of a different amount.

Furthermore, it is in the spirit of the National Education Policy 2020, which places a higher emphasis on the internationalization of the Indian Education System by bringing more international students to Indian universities.
