Step 1
The Challenge

The Indian scholarship landscape is riddled with several challenges:

  • Educational Gap: A significant disconnect exists between scholarship providers and deserving students, often preventing those in need from accessing financial support.

  • Complex Navigation: The overwhelming number of scholarships makes it difficult for students to identify and apply for suitable opportunities. The lack of a standardized system for filtering scholarships further complicates the process, leading to missed chances.

  • Information Accessibility: Many students remain unaware of available scholarships due to the absence of a centralized information repository. Instead, they must rely on scattered sources, including school counselors, online databases, and word of mouth.

  • Exclusion from Financial Aid: This lack of awareness and accessibility results in numerous deserving students missing out on crucial financial support that could enable them to achieve their academic goals. 


Step 2
Strategy & Research

Recognizing these challenges, a strategic approach was adopted to develop a comprehensive and scalable platform:

  • Building a Unified Platform: We created a multilingual platform supporting 8 languages, making scholarship discovery and applications accessible to students across India.

  • Enhanced Scholarship Discovery: We introduced an intelligent scholarship matching and recommendation system ensuring that students find opportunities relevant to their qualifications and backgrounds.

  • Regular Alerts & Support Services: Students receive timely alerts on new and upcoming scholarships along with email and chat bot support for assistance with applications and documentation.

  • Targeted Outreach: We focused on reaching marginalized communities, economically weaker sections and women, ensuring inclusivity in scholarship accessibility.
