At SAMAST, we believe in providing equal opportunities for all students to access quality skill development programs. To make our courses accessible and inclusive, we have designed a range of admission, scholarship, and financial aid options tailored to meet the diverse needs of our learners.
1. % Based Admission Criteria
We understand that academic performance varies, and potential isn’t solely defined by marks. Therefore, we’ve introduced flexible admission criteria:
- Skill-Based Programs: No strict academic percentage, focusing on practical aptitude and willingness to learn.
2. Entrance Test for Scholarships
To ensure deserving students get financial assistance, SAMAST conducts an Entrance Test. This test evaluates aptitude, reasoning, and basic knowledge relevant to the course.
Based on performance, students can avail scholarships:
- Top 5%: 100% tuition fee waiver.
- Next 10%: 50% tuition fee waiver.
- Next 15%: 25% tuition fee waiver.
Special bonus marks are awarded to female and PwD candidates to encourage inclusivity.
3. Need-Based Financial Aid
SAMAST is committed to supporting students from economically weaker backgrounds.
- Applicants can submit their income certificates or BPL cards for financial aid consideration.
- Aid ranges from 25% to 75% fee waivers, depending on the family’s financial situation.
Priority is given to students from rural or marginalized communities in Uttarakhand’s Dehradun and nearby districts.
4. Special Scholarships for Women and PwD
To promote diversity and equity, SAMAST reserves dedicated scholarships for women and Persons with Disabilities (PwD).
- Eligible candidates can receive up to 75% fee waivers.
- We also provide mentorship, peer support, and career counseling to empower these students beyond financial assistance.
