Who Is Eligible (First Phase)
- Students in the final year of graduation or post-graduation at a state university or government college of Uttarakhand.
- Students who passed graduation or post-graduation last year and received a scholarship under the Mukhyamantri Uchch Shiksha Shodh Protsahan Chhatravritti Yojana.
- The first phase focuses on toppers: colleges and universities send the details of their top students to the directorate.
- The launch announcement also mentions government-aided colleges; ask your college whether your class is included.
How Students Are Selected
- The Higher Education Directorate asks every state university registrar and government college principal for the details of topper students in the eligible classes.
- The college prepares a list (name, father's name, class, college, mobile number and e-mail) and sends it to the directorate.
- Selected students receive login details from the coaching institute for their exam.
- Coaching runs online, so students can study from home, which helps those in hill and remote areas.
There is no separate public application form for the first phase. If you are in your final year, contact your college principal or university and ask whether your name has been sent. Beware of websites or agents asking for money to "register" you — the coaching is free.
What the Free Coaching Includes
- Live and recorded online classes by subject experts
- Digital study material and subject-wise question banks
- Regular online tests and full mock tests on the latest exam pattern
- Performance tracking and academic guidance
