UP Board students must apply before the deadline to get financial help through scholarships in 2026.

The Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad (UPMSP) has released the Class 10 (High School) and Class 12 (Intermediate) results for the 2026 examinations. With the declaration of results, students of Class 10 will now move to higher secondary studies, while Class 12 pass students will begin their journey into undergraduate courses and other career options.

This stage is important for students as it decides their future academic path. For many students, especially those from economically weaker families, financial help plays a key role in continuing education. To support them, both the Uttar Pradesh government and the central government provide several scholarship schemes.
