The Bihar Student Credit Card (BSCC) is a Government of Bihar scheme that helps students pay for higher education through a loan. It sits under the state’s 7 Nishchay Yuva programme and is applied for on a dedicated official portal.

It is a loan, not a scholarship. The money has to be repaid under the scheme’s terms. Compare it with the grants in our Bihar scholarships guide before you decide.

Who can apply

The scheme is meant for students from Bihar who have taken admission to eligible higher education courses. Conditions such as residence, qualifying examination, eligible courses and institutions, loan limits and repayment terms are set by the state government and can change. Read the current guidelines on the official portal before you apply, and do not rely on older pages or social media posts.

Documents to keep ready

  • Aadhaar details of the student and the co-applicant, usually a parent or guardian
  • Proof of Bihar residence
  • Admission proof and fee details from the institution
  • Marksheets of the qualifying examination
  • Bank account details and a recent photograph

The portal states the final list of documents. Cross-check it against your own papers before you begin.
