IIT Palakkad Scholarship 2026: Amount, Eligibility, Selection Criteria

IIT Palakkad offers a variety of scholarships and financial assistance programs to support its students. The Merit-cum-Means (MCM) Scholarship is available to 25% of students admitted each year, covering tuition fees and providing a monthly stipend of Rs. 1000, conditional on a minimum GPA of 5 and a parental income below 4.5 lakhs per annum. For students from Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), and Persons with Disabilities (PWD), tuition fees are fully waived, though hostel fees remain payable.

The college collaborates with banks like SBI and Canara Bank to facilitate student loans, particularly under the Vidya Lakshmi educational loan scheme for students with parental income below 9 lakhs per annum. Additional scholarships are available for OBC students with a family income below 2.5 lakhs, and various national fellowships are provided for students with disabilities. The institute's fee structure is approximately Rs. 2,90,000 per year, inclusive of academic and hostel fees, but financial aid and scholarships significantly reduce the financial burden for eligible students.

For detailed eligibility criteria and application procedures, prospective students are encouraged to visit the college's official website.

My college fee structure is divided into 2 parts- institute fee and Hostel fee. For the institute fee we should pay 1,08,200 because of my caste certificate and income certificate,I got a scholarship in my college. which has reduced my institute fee by 100000. Coming to the hostel fee we have to pay as usual. we have so many roles like teacher assistant. and other roles which are having stipends awarded

Decent for a third gen IIT

The complete cost of education here is around 10 lakhs which is decent. There are scholarships from the government. Campus placement is average. Internships opportunities are also good. There has been no change in fee structure.

The fee structure is same for all branches and it is around 2,90,000 per year . For a middle class government employed family, it will a immense amount of money. But our college provides scholarships for the students which are bounded to some conditions.
