Student Selection

We apply a multi-pronged, bias-free approach to student selection process where we identify promising students from impoverished and vulnerable rural families open to educating their children.

• Selection: We visit local Government run/aided colleges and explain the benefits of our programs to the prospective students.
• Shortlist: Meritorious students scoring more than 80% in the 10th grade board exams, from families with annual family incomes of less than 1.5 lakhs.
• Entrance test and interview: Students qualifying in the entrance test move on to a personality interview.
• Assessment of living conditions: Our team visits the homes of shortlisted students to evaluate their living conditions and economic status. Once the students satisfy all our selection criteria, we enroll them into our Kasthuri program.
