About Bharti Airtel Scholarship
Bharti Airtel Foundation aims to support deserving students from diverse socio-economic backgrounds, with a focus on girl students, to become future technology leaders. To achieve this goal, a merit-cum-means based scholarship program, Bharti Airtel Scholarship, has been designed for students enrolled in technology-based engineering undergraduate (UG) courses and 5-year integrated programs (as per the eligibility criteria) in the top 50 NIRF Engineering institutes. The students receiving the scholarship are called Bharti Scholars. The fully funded scholarship is envisaged to eliminate financial barriers that hinder access to quality education to meritorious students. It covers 100% annual fees over the duration of the course, including meal and accommodation charges to those who apply for it. A laptop will also be provided to all Bharti Scholars in the first year for assisting them in studies.
