Besides the scholarships provided by the Government of India, Alumni, and Industries, IIM Ahmedabad provides several need-based scholarships so that a deserving candidate's financial status doesn't keep him from succeeding in life.
- IIM Ahmedabad Need-Based Scholarship
All students whose gross annual family income is below Rs.15,00,000 in the previous financial year are eligible for this scholarship. The management will decide the financial assistance required for each student based on the various criteria it may deem necessary.
2. PGP Alumni Endowment Fund
9 students from PGP - I and PGP/FABM - II are endowed with a scholarship ranging from INR 2,00,000 to 3,00,000. They will be evaluated on basis of social and economic backgrounds.
However, it will be expected that the students will contribute at least the similar amount to the same fund in future so that the fund may continue to assist needy students on a perpetual basis.
3. Peri Viswanath Scholarship
This fund was set up in the memory of Peri Vishwanath, a PGP 2001 student who died in a road accident. It was set up by his batchmates with the aim to help needy students. One student may avail this scholarship to the amount of INR 4,00,000 over both the years of his/her PGP. The candidates are evaluated on merit-cum-need basis.
Again, it is expected that the student will contribute a similar amount towards the fund so that the fund may help needy students on a perpetual basis.
