Rajasthan Extends Swami Vivekanand Scholarship Deadline: Last Chance to Apply by Sept 14

Rajasthan has extended the Swami Vivekanand Scholarship for Academic Excellence application window to September 14, 2026. The state also issued the Phase‑I provisional selection list for foreign universities on September 8. Applicants still refining dossiers now have a brief lifeline, but the portal will close on Monday night.

According to the extension order, eligibility continues under the updated SVS framework. It covers admissions to select global universities based on Times Higher Education and QS rankings, and Indian institutions notified on the scheme list. Candidates should recheck the official eligible‑university list and guidelines before submitting applications.

How to apply for SVS via Rajasthan SSO

Login through Rajasthan Single Sign On, then open the Swami Vivekanand Scholarship application. Update Janaadhaar in your SSO profile, authenticate using the one‑time password, and fill details. Upload clear PDFs or JPGs, then submit. Track status and respond to objections from the dashboard using the Application ID.

SVS Academic Excellence eligibility and categories

SVS awards are processed in distinct categories for foreign and Indian universities. Disciplines include medicine, management, law, agriculture, architecture, and allied sectors, as notified. Use the latest Guidelines 2026‑27 and the published university list to confirm programme and campus eligibility before paying fees or booking travel.

Documents checklist students must keep ready

Keep scanned copies ready: Class 10 certificate, last qualifying marksheet, Rajasthan domicile, admission or offer letter, and fee letter. Prepare affidavits on non‑availability of other aid, income declarations, and name discrepancy, using official annexures. Arrange Income Tax Returns, AIS, and TIS for candidate and parents for recent financial years.

After verification: what to expect under SVS

Post submission, the institute verifies first, then the Commissionerate completes scrutiny. Queries, if any, appear in your dashboard for timely clarifications. Provisional selection lists are released in phases, subject to document compliance. Foreign‑admitted candidates may need visa, admission, and fee proofs before sanction and instalment release.

Smart last‑48‑hours fixes before the SVS deadline

In the final hours, avoid re‑uploads by matching names across documents and annexures. Compress files without harming legibility and keep a stable internet connection. Use Save as Draft if servers are busy, and contact the scholarship helpdesk for issues noted on the portal.
