Dear aspirant,

Getting a fee-waiver depends on what course you are aspiring for and what colleges you want to go for. Try looking up scholarships that are offered for your stream/ course of interest.

1. Science - you can get a scholarship (INSPIRE) of about 60 k from DST per year if you are in the top 1 percent of your boards and are pursuing BSc.

2. There are scholarships that are offered for CLAT toppers as well.

If you feel like you can't pay the fees of your college, you can opt for a student loan and repay it afterwards. There are various scholarships offered by the Indian government for the minorities that you can avail. You can also start a crowdfunding campaign and ask for help with your fees. You can write to the institute of your choice and they might be willing to give you fee-waivers based on your merit.

These are a few steps you can do to avail some financial relaxations.

Hope this helps.
