Scholarship portal par akele aadhaar number ya mobile number se registration complete nahi hoti.

Before Registration: Mandatory Prerequisites

Registration shuru karne se pehle kuch conditions poori honi zaroori hain. Inmein se koi bhi condition miss hone par aap form submit nahi kar payenge.

Aadhaar Linked Mobile Number

Aapka mobile number Aadhaar se linked hona chahiye. OTR aur form submission ke har important step par OTP aayega. Agar mobile number Aadhaar se linked nahi hai to OTP verify nahi hoga.

Consequence: OTP verification fail hone par aap OTR complete nahi kar payenge. Bina OTR ke aage ka koi bhi step possible nahi hai.

Practical implication: Agar mobile number Aadhaar se linked nahi hai to pehle nearest CSC center ya bank branch jaakar linking karwayein. Ye process 24-48 ghanton mein complete ho jati hai.Bank Account With Aadhaar Seeding

Scholarship ki payment DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer) ke through aati hai. Iske liye bank account Aadhaar se seeded hona chahiye. Parent ka account bhi use kar sakte hain.

Consequence: Agar bank account Aadhaar seeded nahi hai to status “Disbursed” dikhane ke baad bhi paisa account mein nahi aayega.

Practical implication: Bank account ka Aadhaar seeding status check karne ke liye bank ki passbook mein “Aadhaar Seeded” likha hota hai ya aap bank branch jaakar puch sakte hain.

 School Master Data Confirmation

School ka master data portal par updated hona chahiye. School ke bina aap apply nahi kar sakte.

Consequence: Agar school master data update nahi hai to aapka school drop-down list mein nahi aayega. Aap form bharna shuru bhi nahi kar payenge.

Practical implication: Form bharna shuru karne se pehle school se puchiye — “UP Scholarship portal par hamara school update hai kya?” School ko master data update karne mein 2-3 din lagte hain.

Rhetorical question 1: Kya aapne school se confirm kar liya hai ki unka master data portal par updated hai? Agar nahi, to aapka time waste ho sakta hai.

Eligibility Criteria for Class 9 Scholarship

Class 9 scholarship ke liye eligibility fixed hai. Niche diye gaye points mein se koi bhi miss hone par application reject ho jayegi.

 Domicile and Institution Requirements

Student ka UP ka domicile hona chahiye. School bhi UP ke andar recognized hona chahiye — government, aided, ya recognized private school.

Consequence: Domicile certificate nahi hai to application turant reject ho jayegi. School recognized nahi hai to verification nahi hogi.

Practical implication: Domicile certificate tehsil office se ban sakta hai. School ki recognition status UPMSP website par check kar sakte hain.

Category Wise Income Limits

Income limits category ke hisaab se alag hain:

Consequence: Income limit se zyada income hai to application reject ho jayegi. Galat category select karne par bhi rejection ho sakti hai.

Practical implication: Income certificate current financial year ka hona chahiye. 2024 ka certificate 2025-26 session ke liye valid nahi hai. Income certificate tehsildar ya block development officer se ban sakta hai.

Data point: UP Social Welfare Department ke 2025 report ke anusaar, lagbhag 15% applications income certificate galat hone ki vajah se reject hui thin.

Academic Continuity Requirement

Student pehle Class 8 pass kar chuka hai aur currently Class 9 mein enrolled hai. Class 8 ki marksheet upload karna zaroori hai.

Consequence: Bina Class 8 marksheet ke form submit nahi hoga. Agar marksheet mein name Aadhaar se mismatch hai to verification fail ho sakti hai.

Practical implication: Marksheet ka clear scan rakhein. Agar marksheet mein name mein spelling mistake hai to school se correction karwayein.

Required Documents With Specifications

Documents ki list aur unki technical specifications niche di gayi hain. Galt specifications par document upload nahi hoga ya reject ho jayega.

Document List

Neeche diye gaye documents mein se sabki zaroorat hogi:

• Aadhaar card (student ka)

• Domicile certificate

• Income certificate (current year)

• Caste certificate (agar applicable ho)

• Class 8 ki marksheet

• Bank passbook ka first page (Aadhaar seeded account)

• Passport size photo (white background preferred)

• School ka enrollment / admission proof

Technical Specifications Har Document Ke Liye

Har document ko scan karte waqt yeh rules follow karein:

• File format: JPG ya PDF

• File size: 200 KB se kam (photo ke liye 50 KB se kam)

• Document dikhna chahiye clear — blurry photo reject hogi

• Document ka naam rakhein jaise — “Aadhaar_StudentName.jpg”

Consequence: Agar file size 200 KB se zyada hai to portal upload nahi karega. Agar document blurry hai to verification ke time reject ho sakta hai.

Practical implication: Mobile se scan karne ke liye “CamScanner” jaise app use karein. Compression setting mein “Document” ya “Small File” option select karein.

Income Certificate Kaunsa Year Ka Chahiye

Income certificate current financial year ka hona chahiye. 2025-26 session ke liye 2025-26 ka certificate valid hai.

Consequence: Purane saal ka income certificate upload karne par application “Rejected” status dikhayegi. Correction window mein dubara upload karna padega.

Practical implication: Income certificate par issue date dekhein. Woh date application date se pehle ki honi chahiye. Agar certificate ek saal purana hai to naya banwayein.

Rhetorical question 2: Kya aapne check kiya hai ki aapka income certificate current financial year ka hai? Agar purana hai to abhi naya banwayein.

One Time Registration Process

OTR (One Time Registration) 2025-26 session se compulsory kar diya gaya hai. Bina OTR ke aap scholarship portal par login nahi kar sakte.

OTR Kaise Karein — Step by Step

scholarship.up.gov.in par jaayein. “New Registration / OTR” par click karein.

Step 1 — Mobile Number Authentication: Apna mobile number daalein jo Aadhaar se linked hai. OTP verify karein.

Step 2 — Aadhaar e-KYC: Aadhaar number daalein. Aadhaar details automatically aayengi. Verify karein.

Step 3 — Basic Details: Name, DOB, father’s name daalein. Yeh details bilkul Aadhaar jaisi honi chahiye.

Step 4 — OTR Number Generate: Submit karne ke baad ek 12-14 digit ka OTR number generate hoga. Ye number registered mobile par SMS se aayega.

OTR Number Ko Kaise Save Karein

OTR number screenshot lein. SMS save karein. Ek notebook mein likhkar rakhein.

Consequence: Agar OTR number kho gaya to portal par login nahi kar payenge. Portal par “Forgot OTR Number” ka koi direct option nahi hai. Aapko school ya district office se contact karna padega.

Practical implication: OTR number ke saath application ke liye registration number bhi same hota hai. Isko digital record rakhein — Google Keep, WhatsApp saved message, ya email.

OTR Mein Ki Jaane Wali Common Mistakes

Mistake 1 — Galat mobile number: Aadhaar linked mobile number nahi daala. Tab OTP nahi aayega.

Mistake 2 — Name mismatch: Aadhaar mein name “Kumar” hai, OTR mein “Kumari” daal diya. Tab verification fail hogi.

Mistake 3 — OTR number save nahi kiya: Bohot saare students OTR number save nahi karte. Baad mein bhool jaate hain.

Data point: Portal ke internal data ke anusaar, lagbhag 22% OTR complete karne wale students apna registration number kho dete hain.

---

Registration Form Filling Process

OTR complete hone ke baad ab aap scholarship form bhar sakte hain.

Step 1 — Login With Registration Number

scholarship.up.gov.in par “Student Login” par click karein. Registration Number aur DOB daalein.

Consequence: Registration number galat daalne par “Invalid Credentials” error aayega. 3 baar galat daalne par account temporary lock ho sakta hai.

Practical implication: Registration number copy-paste karein. Manual type karne se mistake ho sakti hai. Agar locked ho to 30 minute baad try karein.

Step 2 — Select Application Type

“Pre-Matric Scholarship” select karein. Class 9 select karein. Category (General / OBC / SC / ST / Minority) sahi select karein.

Consequence: Galat category select karne par application reject ho jayegi. Example — OBC student ne General select kiya to income limit criteria galat apply hoga.

Practical implication: Category certificate dekhein. Jaisa certificate mein likha hai waisa category select karein. Minority ke liye alag application form hota hai.

Step 3 — Fill Personal and Academic Details

Name exactly Aadhaar jaisa likhein. Father’s name, mother’s name bhi Aadhaar se match karna chahiye. School name drop-down se select karein. Class 8 percentage daalein.

Consequence: Aadhaar se name mismatch hua to verification stage par reject ho jayega. School drop-down mein nahi hai to aage nahi badh payenge.

Practical implication: Aadhaar card saamne rakhkar details bharein. Agar school drop-down mein nahi hai to pehle school se master data update karwayein.

Step 4 — Fill Bank Account Details

Account holder name, bank name, branch, IFSC, account number daalein. Account Aadhaar seeded hona chahiye.

Consequence: IFSC galat hua to payment transfer fail ho jayegi. Account Aadhaar seeded nahi hai to paisa aayega nahi.

Practical implication: Bank passbook kholkar details daalein. IFSC code bank ki website ya Google par search kar sakte hain. Bank branch jaakar confirm kar lein ki account Aadhaar seeded hai.

Case Example 1 — Galat Bank Details: Gorakhpur ke ek student ne IFSC code galat daal diya. Scholarship approve hui, status “Disbursed” aaya, lekin paisa nahi aaya. Bank branch jaane par pata chala ki IFSC galat tha. Next installment mein sahi IFSC daalne par paisa aaya.

Document Upload and Submission

Form fill karne ke baad documents upload karne hain. Phir final submission karna hai.

Document Upload Ka Sahi Tareeka

Pehle document upload karein — Aadhaar, income certificate, caste certificate, marksheet, bank passbook, photo. Har document ke liye browse karein aur upload karein.

Consequence: Agar document upload nahi hua to form submit nahi hoga. Agar galat document upload hua to verification fail hogi.

Practical implication: Upload karne ke baad “Preview” option se check karein ki document sahi dikh raha hai ya nahi. Blurry hai to dubara scan karein.

Final Submission and Print

Sari details aur documents check karne ke baad “Final Submit” par click karein. Submit karne ke baad application PDF generate hogi. Iski printout nikaal lein.

Consequence: Submit karne ke baad kuch fields change nahi kar sakte (except correction window mein). Agar bina check kiye submit kar diya to galati correction window ka wait karegi.

Practical implication: Submit karne se pehle har page carefully check karein. Printout 2 copies nikaal lein — ek school ke liye, ek apne paas.

Hard Copy School Mein Jama Karna

Printed application par student aur parent ke signature karein (self-attestation). Sabhi documents ki copies (self-attested) ke saath school mein jama karein.

Consequence: Agar hard copy school mein nahi jama karein to school verification nahi hogi. Bina school verification ke application “Pending at Institute” par atak jayegi aur approve nahi hogi.

Practical implication: Application submit karne ke 2-3 din andar school mein jama kar dein. School se receipt ya acknowledgment lein.

Rhetorical question 3: Kya aapne application ki hard copy school mein jama kar di hai? Agar sirf online kiya hai to verification nahi hogi.

---

School Verification Process

School verification application approval ka sabse important step hai. Iske bina aage kuch nahi hoga.

School Ka Kya Kaam Hai

School principal ya designated clerk portal par login karta hai. Student ka application check karta hai. Documents verify karta hai. Phir “Forward to District” button click karta hai.

Consequence: Agar school verify nahi karega to application district level par kabhi nahi pahunchegi. Status “Pending at Institute” hi rahega.

Practical implication: Hard copy jama karne ke 5-7 din baad school jaakar puchiye — “Mera scholarship application verify kar diya kya?” Agar nahi kiya to remind karein.

Agar School Verification Nahi Karega To Kya Hoga

Yeh ek common problem hai. Schools sometimes busy hote hain ya master data update nahi hota.

Consequence: Deadline ke baad agar verification nahi hui to application reject ho jayegi. Agli correction window mein bhi school verification ka option nahi hota.

Practical implication: School verification ke liye khud follow-up karein. Clerk se seedha baat karein. Principal se milkar request karein.

Case Example 2 — School Verification Miss: Varanasi ke ek student ne October mein form submit kiya. School verification nahi karwaya. December tak status “Pending at Institute” raha. Jab student ne school se pucha to clerk ne kaha “Form kahan hai?” Student ke paas hard copy thi, turant jama kardi. Verification January mein hui, lekin payment cycle miss ho gayi.

District Committee Verification Ke Baad Kya Hota Hai

School verification ke baad application district committee ke paas jaati hai. Wahan final approval hoti hai. Approval ke baad payment list generate hoti hai.

Consequence: District committee rejection bhi kar sakti hai agar koi document missing hai. Rejection ke baad correction window mein hi sudhar ho sakta hai.

Practical implication: Status regularly check karte rahein. Agar “Rejected” dikhe to reason dekhein aur correction window mein sudharein.
