Internshala Career Scholarship for Girls – 2017
Note to readers: The results of ICSG 2017 have been declared. You can check it here.
The Internshala Career Scholarship for Girls is an annual award of INR 25,000/- meant to help advance one girl’s career in her chosen field. Instituted in 2012, the inspiration for this scholarship lies in the sad coincidence that the Delhi rape victim’s (Nirbhaya case) struggle for life ended on the same day that Internshala celebrates its anniversary (29th December). The scholarship is meant to recognize a girl who has fought against odds to pursue a career of her dreams in any field (Academics, Sports, Arts etc.).

If someone has applied for Merit-cum-Means (MCM) scholarship, can she apply for this scholarship? Won’t it have any influence on MCM?
Hi Rupa,
This scholarship is completely independent of MCM. I do not know for sure if it would influence you getting MCM scholarship. However, if you receive or have already received any other scholarship, we might not award ICSG to you because the scholarship, in any case, would be awarded to someone with a greater financial need.
