ASFT scholarships and financial aid: what the 2026 notice said
Amity’s scholarship pages describe university-level financial aid categories, while the captured 2026 merit scholarship notice sets academic thresholds and application dates for that intake. The 2026 deadline was 5 September, and the notice also asked for original marksheets by 31 October 2026. Both dates have passed as of this page’s 1 November 2026 review. Do not treat the 2026 award window as open or assume those thresholds and terms will repeat for a later intake.
Dated 2026 merit scholarship terms
For Noida undergraduate applicants using the listed CBSE/ISC Class XII results, the official scholarship notice advertised 100% tuition scholarship at 95% or above and 50% at 90%-94.99%. The notice applies to the specified 2026/2025 Class XII batches and says awards depend on application within the stated window and verification. A threshold is not an automatic award: the scheme’s application, eligibility, available-award and document requirements still apply.
For Noida postgraduate applicants, the captured notice combines Class XII and graduation results. The 100% scholarship threshold is at least 95% in Class XII and 80% in graduation; the 50% threshold is at least 90% in Class XII and 75% in graduation. The stated rules concern CBSE/ISC Class XII, no academic gap and a full-time graduation degree. Applicants should read the exact official terms for their category rather than carrying over the undergraduate rule or assuming that a different board or degree format qualifies.
The 2026 page required applicants to submit by 5 September 2026 and said to pay the full fees initially, with any award processed after verification and post-joining. It also requested original marksheets by 31 October. Because those dates are over, the figures above are historical intake terms only. They are included to explain what the last captured notice offered, not to invite a new application against a closed deadline.
Other aid categories
Amity Noida’s financial-aid page groups support under merit, need, sports or art, and differently-abled categories. The captured overview does not provide a current award amount, a live deadline or a full eligibility schedule for each category. Applicants should ask the university which schemes are active for the relevant academic year, the ASFT programme and applicant type, and whether separate forms or evidence are required.
The university also describes special support such as a martyr’s scholarship, subject to its eligibility rules and committee process. The source capture did not establish a current ASFT-specific amount or an open application period for that category. Treat the name of a scheme as a lead to request the current written policy, not as confirmation that a particular applicant will qualify.
Confirm ASFT and programme coverage
A scholarship page for Amity Noida does not by itself prove that every award applies to every ASFT programme, entry route or fee category. Before you rely on a scholarship in your budget, ask whether the specific B.Des, MBA or M.Design offer is covered; whether the award is calculated against tuition only or other charges; whether it applies to sponsored and non-sponsored fee categories; and whether it can be combined with another concession.
Ask whether the award reduces each semester’s bill or is reimbursed after payment, how renewal works in later years, and what academic performance or attendance conditions apply. The 2026 notice said that full fees were paid initially and scholarship processing followed verification and joining; a later scheme may use different payment or renewal rules. Do not assume a 100% tuition scholarship covers the academic deposit, hostel, meals, materials, travel or other charges unless the current award letter says so.
Documents and timing
For any future application cycle, confirm the official opening and closing dates before collecting documents. The 2026 notice referred to Class XII results from 2025 or 2026 and requested original marksheets by the end of October 2026. That evidence may not meet a future cycle’s requirements. Ask whether online marksheets are accepted at application, when originals must be presented, and whether verification occurs before or after enrolment.
Keep a copy of the application acknowledgement, submitted marksheets, offer letter, scholarship decision and fee receipts. If a category requires a sports, arts, need-based or disability document, ask for the accepted format and issuing authority in advance. A verbal assurance or an old social-media image is not a substitute for the written scheme and a student-specific award confirmation.
How to budget without assuming an award
Build the first-year budget from the current ASFT fee schedule and treat scholarship support as uncertain until Amity issues a written decision for your exact programme and category. Separate tuition from the academic security deposit and any hostel charge. If the scheme reimburses after joining, plan for the initial payment without relying on an immediate discount. Ask what happens if verification is delayed or an applicant is found ineligible after paying.
When a new notice is published, compare it with the old 2026 terms across four points: qualifying marks and eligible cohorts; programme and fee-category coverage; application and document deadlines; and renewal/payment conditions. Do not carry forward a percentage award from one cycle merely because the university used it in a previous year. As of 1 November 2026, no current open ASFT-specific scholarship deadline or award amount was confirmed in the captured sources.
