Dayanand Medical College & Hospital offers various scholarships and financial aid programs to help students manage the costs of their medical education. These scholarships aim to support students from diverse backgrounds, ensuring that financial constraints do not become a barrier to pursuing a medical degree at DMCH. The scholarships are provided through a combination of government schemes, institutional support, and private donations.
One of the primary avenues for scholarships at DMCH is the Post-Matric Scholarship Scheme offered by the Government of Punjab and the Government of India. These scholarships are targeted at students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, including those from Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), and Other Backward Classes (OBC). The scholarships cover tuition fees, living expenses, and other educational costs, making it easier for students from these communities to access quality medical education.
In addition to government scholarships, Dayanand Medical College & Hospital offers several Merit-cum-Means Scholarships that are based on both academic performance and financial need. These scholarships are designed to support meritorious students who face financial challenges in continuing their education. The scholarships are often awarded to students who achieve high marks in their exams and demonstrate a commitment to academic excellence.
The college also benefits from the generous contributions of alumni and philanthropists, who have set up endowment funds and scholarships to assist deserving students. These scholarships often recognize outstanding academic achievement and are awarded to students who have excelled in their studies, encouraging them to maintain high standards throughout their education.
