JN Tata Endowment

For the higher education of Indians... to lift up the best and most gifted

The JN Tata Endowment was set up in 1892 by the founder of the Tata Group Jamsetji N Tata to encourage young people to take up higher studies at some of the best universities in the world. It is the first Tata benefaction in the field of education, and possibly the first of its kind in Asia.

For the past 114 years the endowment has been helping scholars of merit to realise their dreams of getting a world-class education through its loan scholarship programme. Annually, the endowment selects around 120 meritorious scholars through a rigorous selection process for the award of the prestigious JN Tata Endowment scholarships for higher studies abroad. Over the years several JN Tata scholars have distinguished themselves in various walks of life.

The endowment awards only loan scholarships. However, the selected scholars may also qualify for a gift award. The amount to be awarded to each scholar by way of loan and gift scholarship is determined on the basis of norms laid down for the purpose, and does not cover the full cost of studies.
