Educational Schemes:

1. Educational Aid (EA)

2. Educational Adoption Scheme (EAS)

3. High Cost Educational Scholarship Scheme (HCES)

1. Educational Aid :

The Educational Aid Support Programme was the first programme to be started by MESCO. It began in a small way but gradually over the years evolved into a programme which helps more than a thousand students every year for their educational needs. Educational Aid (School Level and College Level) provides one time aid to meet the Educational expenses at the beginning of the year. The main criterion is means, but merit is also considered. Generally, aid is provided to the same students who were helped during the past years to enable them to continue with their Education and reach their goals.

2. Educational Adoption Scheme (EAS) :

A programme nurtured with a great deal of love and care is the Educational Adoption Scheme (Flagship of MESCO). It has brought about a significant CHANGE in the lives of hundreds of students over the last thirty six very special and cherished years of its existence.

For induction under this programme, the criterion is limited means with high merit (min.75 % score at the last exam). Students are selected and inducted in the EAS at any level from Std. VIII onwards after visits, interviews and counseling sessions. They are supported for their educational requirements on a multiyear basis until they complete their studies right upto professional and post graduation levels. In the last academic year, we had 311 students in our programme.

3. High Cost Educational Scholarship Scheme (HCES) :

The HCES programme is a comparatively new endeavor and has been in operation since the last 11 years. Financial help is given to students (who are deserving and academically bright) for professional courses.

During the last year the HCES provided loans to a value of 69.36 lacs to 201 students, of which 29 were Medical students, 110 Degree in Engineering, 14 Diploma in Engineering, 32 Professional Graduation, 3 Professional Post Graduation, 9 Business Management, 2 Hotel Management and 2 are preparing for the UPSC exam.

Mr. Sachin Sharma, one of our students supported under HCES scheme, completed BE (Comp.), and presently working with L & T Infotech says, “MESCO has been a light in the path of darkness and has helped me in achieving success in my life. Apart from financial support it taught me in believing in oneself when the going is tough”
