Internshala Career Scholarship for Girls (ICSG) — 2022

Internshala, the recruitment and training platform, has announced its annual scholarship, Internshala Career Scholarship for Girls (ICSG) — 2022. ICSG is an annual award of Rs. 25,000. The reward is meant to recognise a girl who has fought against odds to pursue a career of her dreams in any field — academics, sports, arts, or any other field. 

Any girl of Indian nationality between the age group of 17 to 23 years (as of 31st December 2021)  is eligible to apply for the scholarship by 15th January 2022. To apply, the girl students need to fill this form and state their career objective. The applications will be shortlisted based on four elements including the fight against odds, achievement, purpose, and need.

The application process:

1. Online form – Submission of application.
2. Interview – A short-list for a telephonic interview would be announced and interviews would be conducted. You would be asked to furnish all the necessary documents and proofs before the interview.
3. Referee check – After the interview, your referee (provided in the form) would be contacted for verification, after which the final winner would be selected and announced.

The inspiration for this scholarship lies in the sad coincidence that Nirbhaya’s struggle for life ended on the same day that Internshala celebrated its second anniversary (29th December 2012). Through ICSG, Internshala has been able to help girls who after fighting against the odds and overcoming hardships, are still pursuing their careers relentlessly.
