Free Admission For Meritorious Poor Students & Toppers

ERD Foundation has taken an initiative to support and provide free education to the exceptionally meritorious students from families belonging to BELOW POVERTY LINE, as they cannot afford the financial liability of such courses.
The management of ERDF has been giving free admission for meritorious students of BPL families in all the institutes run by ERDF. Similarly, decision has been taken to admit meritorious BPL students specially from rural areas as per criteria prescribed by both ERDF and USTM.

The INs and OUTs of USTM.

Placements: Our course did not provide us with placement opportunities as it strictly adhered to a coaching environment, with the main goal of the course being the competitive examinations, namely UPSC. The course also did not encourage internships as it would take away the focus on academics and self-reading time for the students.
