How scholarships work in Mizoram

In Mizoram, the Mizoram Scholarship Board manages scholarships for students of the state. Because most students are from Scheduled Tribes, the post-matric ST scholarship is the largest scheme.

The Mizoram Scholarship Board handles applications for students studying both inside and outside Mizoram, and publishes lists of selected students on its website. Students outside the state should keep their contact details updated with the Board so they do not miss document requests.
