30 Unprivileged Students of Bihar Selected for 4-Day Free Educational Tour to IIT Guwahati

It’s always enriching when your dreams come true. A dream of months and years, days
and nights, finally happening. This is the story of 30 unprivileged students of Bihar
mostly belonging from farmer/daily wage worker’s families with no or very less
resources at disposable, from different districts, who dreamt of visiting an IIT campus
one day.
NLCEE (National Level Common Entrance Examination) had conducted a talent hunt
exam across all the districts of Bihar on 21st of August, 2022 at around 280 exam
centres in which more than 1.3 Lakh students from class 9th to Graduation participated.
Organized by IITians, NITians, and IIM grads, NLCEE is a National Level Common
Entrance Examination owned and administered by Edvizo primarily to search talented
candidates, provide recognition and exposure, and extend maximum support to the
unprivileged and deserved through scholarships, so that more and more students can
fulfill their dream of a better education.
25-30 students, whose score was in the top 1% of the total participation in NLCEE
2022, have received a chance to visit IIT-Guwahati for a 4-day’s FREE Educational Trip.
“We are very proud of our students who have been shortlisted for this trip. The journey
will be path-breaking as it will give them a high level of exposure. Such experiences will
encourage the students in the holistic development of their careers and personalities.
The trip to IIT-Guwahati will motivate students to pursue careers in science and
technology and give them a first-hand experience of how the technology and teaching
at IIT-Guwahati works.” Suman Kumar Gunjan, Central Coordinator of NLCEE told.
The 4 day tour will give students an enriching experience of how this reputed
engineering college functions. There will be projects, department & lab visits, live
demonstrations and simulations, group discussions and other activities which will
further help students to dig deeper in the concepts.
These students belong to middle or lower-middle income class families, some of them
studying in government schools, very hardly get a tution/coaching or any other
support, mostly belonging from farmer/daily wage worker’s families, will get this
exposure and experience of a lifetime. Team NLCEE hopes and aspires that this
exposure would help these students achieve their dream jobs and motivate them for
future planning.
NLCEE always aims to help the underprivileged students in multiple ways, and this is
one more chapter to this book.
