Fauji Foundation Educational Stipend (Group-III) 2025-26

About This Scholarship

The Fauji Foundation Educational Stipend (Group-III) is tailored to support the children of ex-servicemen during their crucial Intermediate college years (Classes 11 and 12). Covering FA, FSc, ICS, and ICom students, this group stipend helps retired military families manage the rising costs of college admissions, books, and tuition. It acts as a vital stepping stone, ensuring that military dependents can focus entirely on securing top board marks to transition into professional universities.
