Thapar University: 4 Answered Questions
How much scholarship will I get with 95.6% in CBSE boards in Thapar University?
Thapar University provides three kinds of merit scholarships. You fall in the first category.
Category 1 consists of students with 95% and more in their 12th exam. This is the eligibility requirement. The scholarship is actually given on the basis of JEE Mains score of the eligible candidates. This means that the top 25 students as per JEE Mains scores who also attained 95% and more in their +2 are awarded this scholarship.
Through this scholarship, the students’ tuition and development fees are waived off. To keep getting this scholarship throughout their degree, the students need to maintain 8.5 or more CGPA without any backlogs.
If you have a good enough score in JEE Mains, you are sure to receive this scholarship from Thapar University.
Is it difficult or easy to take scholarships from Thapar University?
At Thapar University, scholarships are offered under 2 categories
- Board score: Candidates whose board score is above 95% are eligible for this scholarship. Under this, the entire tuition and development fee is paid by the institute. Other scholarships under this category have a reduction of fees for a board score between 90–95% also. Students are eligible for this scholarship if they maintain an aggregate CGPA of 8.5 every year.
- CGPA Score: This category of scholarship is for students who make it to the top 10% of the students in terms of CGPA in their respective branches. In the first year, you will be evaluated on the basis of your JEE Main score.
The level of difficulty in availing of these scholarships depends on the category you fall into. Comparatively, the first category is easier as you need to maintain a CGPA of 8.5 while for the second one, you need a CGPA of at least 9.5+ to consistently make it into the top 10% of students in your batch.
Is it true that Thapar University offers scholarship to the top 3 three students of each discipline from 2nd year onward?
One of my friends graduated from Thapar University, he was a scholarship holder, So I think I can give you some information about the same.
According to the new rules at Thapar University, you will be getting a scholarship equal to the tuition fee of the current semester at Thapar University as per the following.
- If you are in the first year and you are among the top 10% of the scorers concerning JEE Main of your branch.
- If you are in the second year and your CGPA score is among the top 10% scorers of your branch irrespective of your JEE MAINS score.
You also have another way of getting a scholarship that falls under the category of ‘Merit cum Means’. If your father or any family member’s collective income is less than 3 lakhs (not sure of the amount but it should be around 3) and you have a good CGPA.
There’s also another Scholarship for students who score more than 95% in 12th Standard Board Exams which is equal to the tuition fee of two semesters i.e. full year. This scholarship gets continued till the Final year but with a stipulation to score CGPA greater than 8.5 in each year.
Is the IEP at Thapar University worth the money invested? Does Thapar University offer scholarships on the basis of needs or performance?
You must keep a few things in mind before applying for IEP at Thapar University. First of all, by applying for IEP the total cost for your UG degree will cross 40-50 Lakhs. Second, in order to study at TCD, you’ll have to maintain 8.5+ CGPA in all your semesters.
I am listing down a few pros and cons of IEP so that you can decide for yourself accordingly-
Pros-
- You’ll get your degree from TCD. This will enhance your profile.
- You’ll receive world class exposure in the field of research and technology.
- You’ll get to experience the culture and working style of the people of some other country.
Cons-
- It is very expensive, and you’ll be required to maintain 8.5 CGPA throughout.
- You’ll get a very short period of time to adapt to the culture and lifestyle of a European nation.
- In case you fail to perform well academically, you might end up jobless in a foreign land.
I would recommend you consider all these factors thoroughly before making a decision. If possible, consult a career counselor as well. Thapar University provides various kinds of scholarships to its students. You can check the official website for more details on the same.
