On behalf of the entire HELP team and our supporters, we are proud to announce the 16th batch of the HELP Post-SEE Scholarship 2026.
Congratulations to each one selected!
This year's application opened on the last day of the SEE examination. What followed was 79 days of dedicated work: rigorous essay reviews, one-on-one interviews both in-person and online, and verification at ward and school level. From 201 applications, we have selected 70 scholars (a 35% success rate) from 17 districts and 47 schools, spanning all seven provinces and all three regions of Nepal: the Terai, the Hills, and the Mountains.
We are especially proud of this year's cohort. 61.43% of our scholars are female. 73% come from marginalised communities. And nearly 50% are from Sindhupalchowk- the district that has always been home to HELP and where this programme began in the first place. Every one of these figures reflects a deliberate commitment, not a coincidence.
To the students who applied but were not selected this year: we are genuinely sorry. Every application carried a real story and real hope, and we are grateful you trusted us with both. The limits of our funding mean we cannot say yes to everyone, but please know that your courage in applying was not unnoticed. We wish you all the success in exploring other opportunities.
This year, we are not just taking further steps but also revamping our approach. We are formally introducing a two-tier structure:
Tier 1 โ A higher financial grant alongside a wellbeing check-ins, skills development, and leadership support across both years.
Tier 2 โ An enabler grant to remove the immediate financial barrier and open the door to further education.
Both tiers are part of our annual scholarship award ceremony at the start of the year and our annual review and gathering at the close.
To our funders, supporters, volunteers, partner schools, and ward offices: thank you. This collaboration and the trust that holds it together is what makes all of this possible.
To every HELP Post-SEE Scholar 2026: congratulations, and welcome to a family now 820 strong. We are honoured to walk alongside you for the next two years with the full stretch of our capacity and a heart that will hold nothing back.
Please check your phone and email. Our team will be in touch shortly with your formal confirmation.
We are proud to support these scholars on their educational journey. If you are interested in supporting our students or would like to learn more about how you can contribute, please feel free to reach out to us.
