In 2025, Karnataka continues to offer a wide range of scholarships for students across levels from PUC to postgraduate and professional programs. State schemes like the SSP Karnataka scholarships, including Pre Matric, Post Matric, and Merit cum Means, aim to support economically backwards, SC/ST/OBC, Minority, and girl students. Applications for SSP Post Matric open typically between February and June, with deadlines around June–July 2025

Apart from government funding, private and NGO scholarships—such as Vidyadhan scholarship Karnataka, Sitaram Jindal, Tata Trusts, and CSR-backed initiatives—offer merit-based awards tailored for academically exceptional students with financial need. Live schemes like Vidyadhan’s Class 11–12 scholarships award up to ₹10,000 per year

Together, these programs create a comprehensive scholarship ecosystem: government assistance ensures basic access, while private schemes empower high achievers. This multi-faceted support encourages social inclusion, meritocracy, and higher education enrollment.
