🎓 Goa State Post‑Matric Scholarship for OBC (Dhangar) Students

Because Higher Education Should Reward Your Effort—Not Drain Your Wallet

“Dreams don’t discriminate—why should opportunity?”

For many **Other Backward Class (OBC) students in Goa—especially those from the Dhangar community—the biggest challenge comes after Class 10. Tuition fees, bus passes, lab charges, project printing, even hostel rent: costs pile up fast.

To keep these dreams alive, the Government of Goa offers the Post‑Matric Scholarship for OBC students through the CM Scholarship Portal. It’s designed to let you continue from Class 11 right up to PhD without day‑to‑day money worries.

🙋 Who Can Apply?

You qualify if:

💰 How Much Do You Get?

🎯 Why This Scholarship Matters

1. Covers everyday costs—travel, meals, stationery.
2. Reduces dropout risk for rural & low‑income OBC families.
3. Pairs perfectly with central NSP Post‑Matric funds—doubling support.
4. Encourages girls (Dhangar community has lower female college enrolment).
