The 51st IMO will be held in Astana, Kazakhstan, July 2–15, 2010.

 

Aditiya Birla Group offers scholarships to meritorious students of IITs, IIMs, and BITS Pilani.

The Aditya Birla Group Scholarship covers the academic fees as well as the hostel fees for the duration of the course, commencing with the academic session of the first year.

The value of the scholarship for various institutions is as under:

IIM: Rs 1,75,000 per annum
IIT / BITS (Pilani): Rs 65,000 per annum
Since the scholarship covers the entire course, scholars are entitled to a refund of any amounts they may have paid to their institute, prior to the commencement of the scholarship.

The scholarship funds are administered by the dean/director of the institution. All funds are sent directly to them for appropriate disbursal.

The performance of the scholars is monitored closely for renewal of the award every year.

Performance assessment criteria for the renewal of the scholarship
The Aditya Birla Scholars are assessed regularly on qualitative and quantitative parameters to judge their performance on the academic and leadership front. This assessment forms the basis for determining the continuation of the scholarship for the next academic session.

For the IIMs, the assessment is done once in a one-year time frame.

For the IITs and for BITS (Pilani), the assessment is done thrice in a three-year time frame.

To be eligible to apply for the scholarship, you must:

 Gain admission to one of the following institutions:
   
  • IIMs: Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Kolkata and Lucknow
  • IITs (B. Tech): Chennai, Delhi, Kanpur, Kharagpur and Mumbai
  • BITS: Pilani
Feature among the top 20 in terms of the entrance exam ranking at the time of admission.

How to apply
