Eligibility
- Citizen of a country covered by an ICCR scholarship scheme or bilateral cultural exchange agreement with India (confirm current eligibility for South Sudan with the Indian High Commission serving South Sudan, or via the ICCR portal, since coverage varies by scheme)
- Meets the minimum academic qualifications for the chosen degree level
- Meets any age limit set for the scheme and degree level
Because coverage varies by scheme and can change year to year, always confirm current eligibility for South Sudanese nationals before applying.
Benefits
Historically, ICCR's general scholarship schemes have covered full tuition fees at a recognised Indian university, plus a monthly living stipend and, in many cases, a contribution toward books/study materials and medical cover. Exact amounts are set by ICCR each cycle and should be confirmed on the official portal.
Application Process
1. Applications for ICCR scholarships are submitted online at a2ascholarships.iccr.gov.in during the scheme's open registration window
2. In many cases the application must be routed through, or endorsed by, the Indian Embassy/High Commission in the applicant's home country - check the specific requirement for South Sudan
3. Shortlisted candidates are notified via the portal and/or the Indian Mission
4. Successful applicants receive placement guidance and support for their student visa
Required Documents
Passport, academic transcripts and certificates, a passport-size photograph, and any documents specifically requested by the Indian Mission in your country. Exact document lists are confirmed at registration.
Important Notes
This listing is based on a direct, live check of the official ICCR scholarship portal (a2ascholarships.iccr.gov.in) on September 14, 2026, which confirmed that 2026-27 registration is currently closed; the rest of the scheme's details (eligibility, benefits, documents) reflect ICCR's well-established general pattern and are pending full verification against the next cycle's published rules. Always confirm current details directly with ICCR or your nearest Indian Mission before applying, and never pay a third party to apply on your behalf.
