Free coaching for India's toughest exams
Our programmes
Eight pathway for every need
The Vedicology Foundation funds full coaching for India's most competitive professional exams, so that money is never the reason a capable young woman cannot prepare for them. We cover six exams — NEET, JEE, CA, CMA, UPSC and CAT — and for each one we pay the full coaching fees directly to a verified coaching institute, along with your study materials and books, your mock test series, and your examination attempt fees. You never handle the money yourself. It is open to the young women we support across Tamil Nadu and Kerala, and there is no cost to apply or to ask.
Choose your exam below to see what it leads to and the marks you need to begin.
Coaching for these exams is expensive, and that cost shuts out talented students every year — not because they could not do the work, but because their families could not pay the fees. We exist to remove that barrier. Whether you want to become a doctor, an engineer, a chartered accountant, a cost accountant, a civil servant or a management professional, there is a path here, and the next step is simply to find your exam.
The six exams we fund coaching for
Each exam has its own page with the full detail — what it leads to, the marks you need, and how to begin. Choose yours:

For whichever exam you are preparing for, the scholarship covers:
- Full coaching fees — paid directly to the coaching institution
- Study materials and books required for the course
- Mock test series and practice materials
- Examination attempt fees
There is no published amount and no cap you need to worry about — the coaching is funded in full, and the money goes straight to the institute. You will not be asked to pay anything and then claim it back.
How it works
The process is the same for every exam.
Assessment
We assess your application and verify your marks and documents.
Home visit
Our Programme Officer visits your home and talks with you and your guardian about your goals.
Quality check
We check the quality of the coaching institution before we empanel it — we want you in a place that will actually get you ready.
Direct payment
We pay the fees directly to the institution — you never handle the money.
Ongoing support
We stay in touch through your coaching to follow your progress.
Who can apply
This coaching is for the young women the Foundation supports across Tamil Nadu and Kerala — including orphan girls, daughters of single parents, and other young women from families that cannot meet these costs.
The Foundation funds young women aged 18 and above. We do not fund minors.
Each exam has its own marks bar to begin coaching — and they are higher than our general scholarship marks, because these are the hardest exams in the country and the coaching is intensive. Here is a quick orientation:
| Exam | Marks to begin | Measured on |
|---|---|---|
| NEET | 90%+ | Physics, Chemistry, Biology (PCB) specifically, Class 12 |
| JEE | 90%+ | Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics (PCM) specifically, Class 12 |
| CA | 90%+ | Overall Class 12 — Commerce stream |
| CMA | 90%+ | Overall Class 12 — any stream |
| UPSC | 85%+ | Graduation aggregate, any discipline |
| CAT | 85%+ | Graduation aggregate, any discipline |
This is only a summary to help you find your footing. The full marks table for every Foundation programme — and what happens if your marks are slightly below the bar — lives on one page. See the full marks table.
If your marks are a little short of your exam's bar, please do not rule yourself out before you have asked us. Talk to us first.
Coaching, or the exam fee? They are different
It is worth being clear, because the two are easy to confuse. This page is about coaching — the classes, materials and guidance that prepare you for the exam. If what you need is help paying the fee to register for and sit the exam, that is a different programme: Exam Fee Support.
The two can work together — we may help you with coaching to prepare, and then with the registration fee when it is time to sit.
Important
Vedicology Foundation never charges any application fee, processing fee, registration fee, or documentation fee. Our support is completely free. If anyone asks you for money claiming to represent us, please report it immediately:
