MP Scholarship Portal 2.0: Complete Guide to Schemes, Registration, and Login 2026-27

If you are a student in Madhya Pradesh and you need money for your studies, the MP Scholarship Portal 2.0 is made just for you. The Government of Madhya Pradesh runs this online platform. It helps students from SC, ST, OBC, and Minority groups apply for scholarship money — all in one place.

Before this portal, students had to go to different offices and fill many forms. It was hard and took a lot of time. Now, everything is online. You can register, apply, check your status, and get money directly in your bank account — all from home.

The official websites of the MP Scholarship Portal 2.0 are:

• scholarshipportal.mp.nic.in
• hescholarship.mp.gov.in

Both websites work for the same portal. You can use either one to log in and apply.

The portal is also called the State Scholarship Portal 2.0. It covers Post-Matric scholarships, Pre-Matric scholarships, and special schemes for girls and meritorious students. The money goes directly into your bank account through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT). This means no middlemen and no delays.

Why Was MP Scholarship Portal 2.0 Launched?

Many students in Madhya Pradesh come from low-income families. College fees, hostel costs, books — all of these are expensive. Because of money problems, many students have to stop their studies.

The Madhya Pradesh government launched this scholarship portal to solve that problem. The goal is simple: every student should get a chance to study, no matter how much money their family has.

Here is a quick overview of the portal:
