As a rule, the welfare department gives post matric scholarship only to those students who study as a day-scholar by staying in hostels of educational institutions in other states on the basis of full time course. Thousands of students from Jharkhand are still studying in Madhya Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Telangana, Odisha and Chhattisgarh and have applied for post matric scholarship.
