Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences (KNRUHS) Scholarships & Eligibility

Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences (KNRUHS) in Warangal, Telangana, supports student financial needs through a mix of state government scholarships, university merit aids, and category-based schemes, covering tuition, hostel fees, and stipends for its 14,000+ students across MBBS, BDS, nursing, and paramedical programs. These aids are crucial given fee disparities—government quota at INR 40,000-60,000/year vs. management quota up to INR 3.5 lakh—prioritizing economically weaker sections (EWS), SC/ST/OBC, and high achievers in NEET or merit lists.

  • Means-Based/Need Scholarships: For family income < INR 2-5 lakh; reimburses full tuition (up to INR 60,000) and hostel (INR 11,000-1.45 lakh). EWS-specific aid up to INR 25,000 reduces total fees to ~INR 50,000.
  • Category Scholarships: SC/ST: INR 10,000-20,000 + full fee waiver; OBC/BC: INR 5,000-15,000 based on income/academics; PwD: Additional stipends. Post-matric schemes via ePASS portal.
