The Government College of Arts and Science (GASCA), Aurangabad, facilitates a wide array of scholarships primarily through the Maharashtra state government and central government portals. Since GASCA is a state-run institution, students are eligible for significant fee waivers and financial aid that can often reduce the effective tuition cost to nearly zero.
Applications for the 2026-2027 academic year are typically processed through the MahaDBT (Aaple Sarkar) portal.
