Hello,

Yes, you might be eligible to apply under the rural quota for KCET if you meet the following criteria:

Education in Rural Areas: You must have studied in a school located in a rural area for at least 3 consecutive years between 8th and 10th grades. Since you studied 8th to 10th in a rural area, you fulfill this requirement.

Other Requirements: You may need to provide a Rural Study Certificate issued by the head of your school and countersigned by the Block Education Officer (BEO).

Hello there,

In Karnataka CET (KCET), eligibility for the Rural Quota Scholarship depends on completing at least 7 full academic years of study in a rural area as per the guidelines. Here's how your case applies:

Key Points:

1. Criteria for Rural Quota :

   • A candidate must have studied for 7 consecutive years in schools located in rural areas .
     
     
   • Rural areas are defined as villages without a municipality or corporation as per government norms.
     
     

2. Your Case :

   • You studied 1st to 7th in an urban area and 8th to 10th in a rural area .
     
     
   • This totals 3 years in a rural area , which does not meet the 7-year rural study requirement .
     
     Conclusion:

You are not eligible for the Rural Quota Scholarship in KCET. You should apply under your general or other applicable category.
