The Government of Meghalaya is inviting applications from eligible students who are permanent residents of Meghalaya for the Chief Minister’s Meghalaya Hospitality Scholarship Scheme – 2025 for admission to the 3-year Bachelor of Science (B.Sc) course in Hospitality and Hotel Administration Course at the Institute of Hotel Management (IHM), Shillong, for the academic session 2025–2026.
Under this scheme, a total of fifty-five scholarships will be awarded with one seat allotted to each Block of the State. The scheme is open to permanent residents of Meghalaya with a valid Domicile Certificate who have successfully completed Class XII (10+2) or an equivalent examination with English as one of the subjects. In cases where more than one applicant applies from the same Block, preference will be given to the candidate securing the highest marks in Class XII, and in case of a tie, preference will be given to the elder candidate.
