Government (Abr) Degree College Scholarships & Eligibility

Sri ABR Government Degree College, Repalle (Guntur region, Andhra Pradesh), facilitates access to a wide array of state and central government scholarships for its economically weaker and reserved category students, primarily through the JnanaBhumi portal. As a government institution, it ensures seamless processing for Post-Matric Scholarships, fee reimbursements, and maintenance allowances, covering nearly all eligible UG/PG students from SC/ST/BC/EBC/Minority backgrounds.

Types of scholarships

The college supports Andhra Pradesh's flagship Jagananna Vidya Deevena (full fee reimbursement up to tuition, special, and exam fees) and Jagananna Vidya Kanuka (textbooks, uniforms, and INR 500 transport allowance for Day Scholars).
Post-Matric Scholarships (PMS) via JnanaBhumi target SC/ST/BC/EBC (non-Kapu)/Kapu/Minority/Differently Abled students, including RTF (full fee to college account) and MTF (?20,000/year for degree students to mother's account for food/hostel).
Other schemes include NTR Vidyonnathi (coaching for civil services, up to INR 1 Lakh), Ambedkar Overseas Vidya Nidhi (up to INR 10 Lakh for PG/PhD abroad), and merit-based Gayathri/Bharati awards (?7,500-?20,000).
