The Prime Minister’s Special Scholarship Scheme (PMSSS) is a dedicated financial aid program for the youth of J&K. Frequently referred to as the AICTE JK Scholarship 2026, this initiative is supported by the Jammu & Kashmir administration to assist students in pursuing higher education. Managed by the All India Council for Technical Education under the Ministry of Education, the PMSSS offers financial support to eligible and deserving students for both academic tuition and maintenance expenses.
Deadline for PM Special Scholarship Scheme Registration
We advise students to complete their registration and document verification promptly rather than waiting for the final date. Online applications for the 2026-2027 academic year, including those for lateral entry into the second year, must be submitted via the official website. Lateral entry selections are subject to the availability of vacant seats from the previous academic year within engineering programs.
Comprehensive details regarding eligibility, available courses, and other guidelines are listed on the official portal. According to AICTE regulations, only students who completed their diploma through the Jammu and Kashmir State Board of Technical Education from the 2020-21 academic year onwards are eligible to apply.
