No, students who are receiving another scholarship or stipend for the same course are not eligible for this scheme.

Students pursuing certificate courses in home nursing receive [?]3,500 or the actual course fees, whichever is less, as financial assistance. Additionally, they receive [?]1,000 for books, uniforms, and stationery.

No exceptions are made to the 15-year continuous residency requirement. Applicants must either be born in Goa or have completed a full 15 years of continuous residence before applying.

The maintenance allowance adjusts according to the student's current status. Students must inform the directorate of any change in their day scholar/hosteler status, and the allowance will be adjusted from the month of status change.

Yes, this scheme explicitly prohibits beneficiaries from availing any other scholarship/stipend for the same course, regardless of the source or amount of the additional scholarship.

The scholarship is paused during any break in studies. Students must notify the directorate about their medical break and provide documentation for continuation of scholarship upon rejoining.

The income certificate should reflect the total annual income from all sources for the previous financial year, regardless of seasonal fluctuations.

The scheme specifically covers only up to three years of nursing degree programs. Benefits for the fourth year are not provided, even for longer duration courses.

Students must immediately inform the directorate about the transfer, provide documentation from both institutions, and ensure the new institution is also recognized by State/Central Government for continued scholarship.

The one-time amount is provided only once per education level. Students changing courses at the same level (e.g., between diploma courses) are not eligible for another one-time payment.

While students with disabilities are eligible, the scheme doesn't specify additional benefits or documentation relaxations. Standard requirements and benefits apply to all categories.

The scholarship only covers up to the specified limits (e.g., [?]10,000 for degree courses). Any additional costs must be borne by the student, with no provisions for extra funding.

No, the scholarship is designed for full-time students only. Part-time program enrollees are not eligible, even if the course duration matches the specified criteria.

The allowance remains based on the student's primary enrollment status (day scholar/hosteler) regardless of temporary clinical posting locations.

Yes, students can receive benefits for progressive levels of education (certificate to diploma to degree), but not for multiple courses at the same level.
