DFT Scholarship 2026 Online Application Open Now

The Dalda Foundation Trust has officially opened online applications for the prestigious DFT Scholarship 2026 and Student Development Programme 2026–27. According to official announcements published across Pakistan, eligible students pursuing professional intermediate, university degree courses, or vocational technical training can now submit their forms online between October 12, 2026, and November 13, 2026.

This development offers immense financial relief to thousands of deserving matriculation graduates and intermediate scholars across Pakistan, Gilgit-Baltistan, and Azad Kashmir. Rising educational expenses often force talented youth to compromise on higher studies. Through financial support, mentorship, and career training, this programme secures long-term academic continuity for low-income families aiming for professional excellence in public-sector institutions.

The Dalda Foundation established this holistic six-year student development plan to empower talented youth through financial assistance and skill building. Candidates applying as general external applicants for professional education must be below 19 years of age, hold residence in Pakistan or AJK, and be enrolled in eligible public-sector institutions. Academic eligibility criteria require a minimum of 70% marks for ICS, Arts, Home Economics, and General Science groups, or 80% marks for Medical and Engineering streams in Matriculation. Furthermore, urban family residences must not exceed 120 square yards, and monthly parent or guardian income must be under Rs. 70,000.

For vocational education and training, candidates with 50% Matriculation marks can apply for short courses spanning six months to two years. Additionally, internal third-party worker dependents from Grade 8 onwards are eligible with at least 50% marks and a household monthly income threshold of Rs. 90,000.
