“A Child should never be deprived of quality education because of they are residing in Rural Areas. This forceful thought in the mind of Hon’ble Chancellor VIT University became the seed that gave birth to the innovative “STARS” scheme”.

VIT Bhopal University has also started STARS scheme in Madhya Pradesh as well from the academic year 2019-2020 in order to cater the topper students from rural areas, who have completed their 12th from government schools.
The STARS scheme was officially launched in Madhya Pradesh by Dr. G. Vishwanathan Hon’ble Chancellor VIT University on May 20th, 2019 . VIT Bhopal Campus is located at Bhopal Indore Highway in Madhya Pradesh: Ms. Kadambari Vishwanathan, Assistant Vice President of VIT Bhopal University has taken decision of initiating the STARS scheme to all 52 Districts of Madhya Pradesh after reviewing the local constraint and level of inadequacy of quality higher education in the state.
