Student relief fund

A rather recent addition to the list of funds, the student relief fund was established in 2007, with an aim to help students who are in serious need of financial assistance. University has lined up its selection  criteria for the purpose and once selected, students will receive ten installments per academic year. Any student who faces financial difficulties due to various reasons, may contact the welfare division and request to be considered for the receipt of the fund. The university identifies this program as one of their fastest approved funds.
