The SSP Scholarship is a program run by the Karnataka state government in India. Through it, students (both in pre-metric and post-metric levels) can apply for financial help. The SSP portal helps them apply, track their application status, and get payments.
In this post, we explain:
- How to log in or register on the SSP portal
- How to check your scholarship status
- Key dates to remember
- Some tips and reminders
I’ll keep the language simple so everyone—whether in school, college, or just curious—can understand.
What is the SSP Scholarship?
SSP stands for State Scholarship Portal. It is the online system used by the Karnataka government for many scholarship schemes. Students from certain categories (such as SC, ST, OBC, minority groups) and who meet specific income and academic criteria can apply.
There are two main types under this scheme:
- Pre-Matric Scholarship: For students studying in classes 1 to 10
- Post-Matric Scholarship: For students studying above class 10 (for example, PU, degree, diploma, etc.)
Each type has its own rules about income limits, required documents, and benefits.
SSP Portal: Official Sites
Here are the official SSP portal links you will use:
- Pre-Matric portal: ssp.karnataka.gov.in
- Post-Matric portal: ssp.postmatric.karnataka.gov.in
Always make sure you are using these official links. Avoid any links that look suspicious or ask for extra payments.
How to Create SSP Login / Register (2025–26)
If you are applying for the first time, you must create an SSP account before logging in.
Here’s a simple step-by-step:
- Go to the official portal (pre or post-metric, as per your level).
- On the homepage, look for “Create Account” or “New Registration” option.
- Fill in basic details: name, mobile number, email, Aadhaar number, etc.
- You will get an OTP (One Time Password) on your mobile—enter it.
- Enter details of your certificates (caste certificate, income certificate) and verify whether your name matches the certificate.
- Create a password. After that, your account is active and you can login.
Note: For post-matric users, sometimes e-attestation (digital approval by your college) is required for documents.
How to Login to SSP (2025–26)
Once registered, logging in is straightforward:
- Go to the SSP portal (pre or post matric)
- Click “Student Login” or “Login” button
- Enter your Username / SSP ID, Password, and Captcha
- Click “Login” / “Submit”
If you forget your password, there is usually a “Forgot Password” link or “Know your Student ID” link. You can get a new password using your mobile number or email.
How to Apply via the SSP Portal
After login, you must fill out your scholarship application. The steps differ slightly for pre-matric vs post-matric students, but here’s a general idea:
- Choose “Apply for Pre-Matric” or “Apply for Post-Matric” depending on your level
- Fill in personal / study / caste / income details
- For post-matric, fill college / course details
- Upload required documents (marksheets, caste certificate, income certificate, Aadhaar, etc.)
- Preview your full form, check for errors
- Click “Submit / Final Submit”
- Download or take a print of the acknowledgment slip for your records
- Submit the printed slip to your college for verification if required.
After submission and verification, your application moves through stages such as “Under Review” → “Approved” or “Rejected”.
SSP Scholarship Status: How to Check
Once your application is submitted, you will want to track where it is. The SSP portal gives a way for you to check status.
Here’s how:
- Log in to your SSP student account
- On the dashboard or menu, look for “Scholarship Status”, “Track Status” or “Application Status”
- Enter any required details (for example, fiscal year, or application ID)
- The portal will show your current status (e.g. “Submitted”, “Under Review”, “Defective”, “Approved”, etc.)
That’s it. You just log in and see what stage your application is in.
Key Dates 2025-26 (Tentative / Department-wise)
Below is a table showing some important dates for SSP scholarship in 2025-26. These are based on announcements so far and can change. Always confirm on the official SSP portal before acting.
Scheme / Department | Last Date for Application (2025-26) |
Department of Backward Classes Welfare | September 30, 2025 |
Department of Minorities Welfare | September 30, 2025 |
Department of Arya Vyshya / Technical Education / Brahmin Board | November 30, 2025 |

Tips & Reminders
- Always use your official Aadhaar, certificate, and bank account (linked to Aadhaar) to avoid delays.
- Make sure you upload clear, legible documents (PDF, JPEG, etc.).
- Check that your name in certificates matches the name you use in SSP.
- After applying, check status regularly. If your application is “defective” or needs correction, fix it fast.
- Keep a copy (print / screenshot) of your acknowledgment slip / submission record.
- Don’t wait until the last day to apply—portal traffic may be heavy, or server issues may appear.
Why the SSP Portal Is Helpful
- It brings transparency: you can see where your application is.
- It’s all online, so you don’t have to go to many offices.
- Once approved, funds are sent to your bank account using DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer), so you don’t have to chase payments.
- It supports many departments under one system, so you don’t have to check many separate sites.
