Bihar Student Credit Card Scheme Courses 2026: Complete List of Eligible Courses

The Bihar Student Credit Card (BSCC) Scheme is a Government of Bihar initiative designed to provide financial assistance through an education loan to eligible students pursuing higher education.

The scheme covers a wide range of general, professional, technical, and vocational courses. The official Bihar Student Credit Card portal includes courses such as B.A., B.Sc., B.Com., BCA, B.Tech, Engineering, MBBS, Nursing, Pharmacy, BDS, BAMS, BHMS, BUMS, BBA, MBA, Law, Architecture, Polytechnic, and several other programs.

For students planning higher education after Class 12, the scheme can be particularly useful when the cost of tuition, accommodation, and other education-related expenses becomes a financial challenge.

Important: Inclusion of a course in the BSCC course list does not automatically guarantee loan approval. Students must also satisfy the applicable eligibility conditions, and their institution/course must meet the relevant recognition and scheme requirements.

What Is the Bihar Student Credit Card Scheme?

The Bihar Student Credit Card Scheme provides education loan support to eligible students from Bihar who wish to pursue higher education.

According to the official Bihar Student Credit Card FAQ, the scheme can cover higher-education programs, including general, professional, and technical courses such as B.A., B.Sc., Engineering, MBBS, Management, and Law.

The official Bihar portal also maintains a course database in which individual courses are assigned course codes. For example, the portal lists B.A., B.Com., B.Sc., BCA, B.Sc. Nursing, B.Tech/BE/B.Sc. Engineering, BBA, B.Pharm, BDS, MBBS, MBA, Law, and other programs.

Bihar Student Credit Card Scheme Eligibility Criteria

Students should check the eligibility conditions before applying.

According to the current official Bihar Student Credit Card FAQ, an applicant generally needs to meet the following conditions:

1. Bihar Resident

The applicant must be a resident of Bihar.

2. Class 12 Qualification

The applicant should have passed Class 12 or an equivalent examination from a government-recognized institution in Bihar, as specified by the scheme.

3. Admission or Selection for Higher Education

The applicant should be enrolled or selected for admission to a higher-education program at an institution recognized by the relevant regulatory authority.

4. Age Requirement

The official FAQ states that the applicant's age should not exceed 25 years on the date of application.

5. No Duplicate Financial Assistance

The applicant should not already be receiving another applicable education loan, student credit card, scholarship/allowance, or financial assistance from another source, as specified under the scheme.

6. Recognized Course and Institution

The course and institution must satisfy the applicable recognition and regulatory requirements.

Students should therefore check the current BSCC portal and their institution's status before assuming that admission automatically makes them eligible.
