TATA SCHOLARSHIP FOR CORNELL UNIVERSITY

The Tata Education and Development Trust, which is part of the Tata Group, is primarily concerned with dividing the financial burden of students who want to improve their abilities and prepare for a bright future. The trust has endowed about USD 25 million, allowing Cornell University Tata Scholarship to provide money to UG students from across India.

The Tata Scholarship programme at Cornell University gives roughly 20 scholarships to Indian students. The trust ensures that academically exceptional students from India, regardless of their socioeconomic circumstances, have access to Cornell University.

#SELECTION PROCESS

Students should carefully fill out the application form's contents because the Cornell University Tata Scholarships are awarded solely on the basis of the information and documents provided during the application process. The following are some of the factors that will be considered throughout the selecting process:

• Academic credentials
• the family's earnings
• Citizenship
• Score on the English Language Proficiency Test

The shortlisted applicant list will be published on Cornell University's official portal, and students are encouraged to check the portal frequently for results and other vital announcements after applying.

#GRANT DETAILS

The collaboration between Cornell University and the Tata Trust gives students a wide range of options for pursuing a professional degree at a globally recognised institution. This award provides financial assistance to 20 Indian students each year. The Tata Scholarship at Cornell University, on the other hand, simply pays the recipient's tuition and fees.

Because this is a need-based scholarship, the awardees will be able to complete their four-year undergraduate degree. Funds are only available for eight semesters for programmes that require ten semesters of full-time participation (for example, B.Arch). Scholarship applications will be accepted for the forthcoming session from November 2024 to March 2024.
