Ncell Foundation, in collaboration with Project Shikshya, is providing scholarships to 100 Secondary Education Examination (SEE) graduates for their +2 education. The scholarships aim to support talented students, particularly those facing financial challenges, by covering their higher education costs and offering communication support. The selection process involves written examinations across seven provinces and structured interviews to ensure equitable access.

  • The scholarship program targets SEE graduates of 2026 and includes unlimited data and voice services from Ncell for 12 months.
  • Project Shikshya, run by Hundred Group, will also provide scholarships to an additional 50 students, continuing a program initiated in 2017.
  • Bishakha Lakshmi Khadka, Corporate Communications & Sustainability Director at Ncell, stated that the foundation believes education is crucial for Nepal's future and aims to empower youth regardless of geography or economic circumstances.
  • The selection process is designed to be transparent and reach students with potential but lacking a platform, ensuring equitable access across the country.
