Since you are an SC student admitted to IT branch at GIET College of Engineering, Rajahmundry, you are eligible for government scholarships that cover tuition fees as well as hostel fee reimbursement in many cases. The main one is the Post Matric Scholarship provided by the Andhra Pradesh Social Welfare Department, which offers full or partial fee reimbursement, including hostel charges, depending on family income limits, Apart from this, you can also apply for Janabhumi scholarships, state SC welfare hostel schemes, and central government scholarships like NSP.

Since you belong to the SC category and come from a low-income family, you’re eligible for Andhra Pradesh’s Post-Matric Scholarship, which covers 100% of tuition fees (RTF) and provides a 20,000 annual allowance for hostel and food expenses (MTF)—this can directly help with your hostel fees. You should register for the scholarship through the AP ePASS/Jnanabhumi portal after securing admission and meeting the attendance requirement. Once approved, the tuition gets credited to the college, and the maintenance allowance is directly transferred to your or your parent’s account.
