Submission of applications under the Fee Waiver Scheme for UG 3rd, 5th & 7th and PG 1st & 3rd Semester
In continuation of the Fee-Waiver Scheme of the Government of Assam, I am directed to inform you that the Fee-Waiver Application module in the Assam SAMARTH Portal shall be opened for eligible students for UG 3rd, 5th & 7th and PG 1st & 3rd Semester as per the schedule given below:
| Sl No. | Activity | Timeline |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Opening of Fee-Waiver Applications | 07-10-2026 |
| 2 | Verification of forms by institutions starts from | 08-10-2026 |
| 3 | Last date for submission by students | 25-10-2026 |
| 4 | Last date of verification & submission of forms by institution | 31-10-2026 |
It may be noted that Aadhaar is mandatory for availing the benefits of the Fee-Waiver Scheme. Accordingly, the present application process through the Assam SAMARTH Portal has been introduced primarily to facilitate the Aadhaar-based verification/authentication of students (like Nijut Moina & Nijut Babu) who wish to avail the Fee-Waiver benefit and to ensure that the benefit is extended only to eligible students.
The following points may be noted:
All concerned institutions are requested to extend necessary cooperation for smooth and timely completion of the Fee-Waiver application and verification process through the Assam SAMARTH Portal.
