About the Scheme

What is the Bihar Student Credit Card?

Launched by the Government of Bihar under the Saat Nishchay (Seven Resolves) programme, this scheme helps students from Bihar pursue higher education without worrying about finances.

Many talented students drop their dreams of higher studies because of money. The Bihar Student Credit Card Yojana removes that barrier by offering a low-interest education loan that the state government guarantees — so no bank rejection and no property to mortgage.
