Scholarships and Financial Support Schemes

IIMA Need-Based Financial Assistance Scheme

The institute administers the flagship IIMA Need-Based Financial Assistance Scheme designed to support students enrolled in the two-year PGP and PGP-FABM programmes whose family income falls below specified thresholds. Financial aid eligibility is evaluated objectively taking into account total gross family income, family assets, number of dependents, and outstanding liabilities. Depending on financial need, eligible candidates receive partial to full tuition fee waivers, ensuring that deserving students from economically weaker backgrounds can complete their degree with complete financial peace of mind.

Government and Industry Sponsored Scholarships

Enrolled students at IIMA can also apply for various central and state government scholarship initiatives. These include the Central Sector Scholarship Scheme of Top Class Education for SC and ST Students awarded by the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment and Ministry of Tribal Affairs, Merit-cum-Means Scholarships for minority community students, and state-specific post-matric scholarship schemes. Furthermore, several leading corporate conglomerates, financial institutions, and alumni groups sponsor merit-cum-means awards, including the Aditya Birla Group Scholarship, OP Jindal Engineering and Management Scholarship, and targeted alumni trust grants.

Educational Loans and Application Procedure

To assist students with immediate fee payments, IIMA collaborates with premier nationalized and private commercial banks to offer collateral-free educational loan packages at concessional interest rates. These loans cover the entire programme fee, hostel expenses, and laptop purchases with relaxed repayment schedules and moratorium periods extending past graduation. The institute's dedicated scholarship committee guides students through the application and verification process during admission orientation.
