To recognize students’ academic achievements and inspire them to reach even greater heights, KSBL
provides generous merit-based scholarships, including the following:
Merit Scholarships
Merit Scholarships for Undergraduate Programs Based on Previous Grades
To promote equal educational opportunities, KSBL offers generous merit-based scholarships to all
prospective students irrespective of their religious, ethnic, racial, gender, or socio-economic background.
These scholarships enable talented students to pursue their four-year undergraduate degree without
financial barriers.
Types of KSBL Merit-Based Scholarships:
Each of these scholarships offers a tuition fee waiver ranging from 20% to 100% for one semester, based
on the student’s academic performance and merit.
GPA-Based Scholarships for All Programs:
KSBL recognizes and rewards academic excellence through GPA-based scholarships available to students
across all programs. These scholarships are awarded for the next semester’s tuition fee only, based on the
semester’s GPA.
Scholarship Award Tiers:
To qualify for GPA-based scholarships, students will have to assume a regular course load assigned by
the Institute. A GPA earned with a course load below this standard in any semester will not be considered
for scholarship eligibility. To retain the scholarship, students must adhere to the student code of conduct,
avoiding any violations.
Financial Assistance
To ensure that education remains accessible to talented individuals regardless of their financial background,
to reduce barriers to learning, and to allow students to focus on their academic pursuits without the burden
of financial stress, KSBL offers 50% students financial assistance in the form grants and zakat assistance,
and interest-free loans. Besides, KSBL offers alumni and corporate discounts and fee waiver to disabled
students.
KSBL Need Based Grants
KSBL provides need-based grants or fee waivers covering up to 50% of tuition fees for the entire program.
These grants are awarded based on a computerized need assessment formula, which determines the amount
of financial assistance according to the student’s need assessment score. Only enrolled students are eligible
to apply.
To apply for the grant, students may use the following link, log in with their personal email ID, fill out the
application, and upload all the required documents.
