Hi Dinesh,

The Freeship Card is a government endeavor to assist students economically weak in meeting their educational expenditures. Its acceptance and applicability vary among institutions for courses.

Applicability in Self Financing Colleges for MS Education:

- Self Financing Colleges: A self-financed college is one that runs without the government directly funding it. Therefore, there is no compulsory condition for MS (Master of Science) students for the acceptance of Freeship Cards in such colleges.

- Course Level: Freeship Cards are considered eligible for undergraduate courses, but it may vary from postgraduate courses like MS.

Advisories:

1. Ask Directly: A call to the admissions or financial aid office of the particular self-financing college should clear the doubt about whether Freeship Cards are allowed for the particular MS program.

2. Official Guidelines: Check the website for new guidelines from the Kerala Higher Education Department or the Directorate of Collegiate Education, such as new guidelines relating to the applicability of the scheme.

3. Other Sources of Scholarships: In the event that Freeship Card is not allowed, ask other scholarships they have for MS students studying in a self-paying college.

Conclusion:

Thus, there is no certainty in the acceptance of Freeship Card for MS education in self-financing colleges in Kerala. It depends on the respective institution. One should check with the college as well as official sources to know about the available options in financial support.

For more details, one can refer to the [Handbook of the Directorate of Collegiate Education](https://collegiateedu.kerala.gov.in/wp-content/uploads/2024/01).
