KindCircle is backed with close to 4.5 million registered students on Buddy4Study.com. Your contribution will reach to the most deserving students selected through a multi-layered process after due verification of students. At KindCircle, we also bring you

• Transparency in fund-usage
• Technology-driven automated processes
• Regular student tracking

Yes. A single Circle can host multiple initiatives—for example, separate support for school students, UG/PG scholars, or professional courses. Each initiative can have its own budget, criteria, and seat distribution.

Yes. You may temporarily pause new applications or new intakes while still continuing support for existing scholars (if funds are available). The Circle can be set to “inactive” for new cycles whenever required.

If a scholar discontinues studies or becomes ineligible, the remaining unutilised amount returns to your Circle balance. You may decide whether to:

• Support a replacement scholar,

• Enhance support for an existing scholar, or

• Carry the amount forward to the next cycle.

You will receive notifications (email and WhatsApp, where enabled) whenever:

• Verified profiles are ready for review,

• Final scholar selection is required,

• Renewal decisions are due, or

• New reports and updates are published.

The role is meaningful but not time-intensive. Most Kartas spend:

• A few hours during the first cycle (framework + profile review), and

• 1–2 hours during key milestones in a year.

• The Kind Circle team manages all operational work.

Yes. Eligibility criteria, preference groups, scholarship amounts, and number of seats can be revised annually. The Kind Circle team will help incorporate the changes smoothly.

Yes. The primary Karta role can be reassigned to a family member, colleague, or core group representative. The Kind Circle team will formally update roles and permissions on the platform.

Yes. You may run multiple Circles (e.g., a Family Circle, a Memorial Circle, a Community/Alumni Circle). Each Circle will have its own dashboards and reporting, while you retain central administrative access.

Yes. You may request periodic review calls or customised analysis—such as insights by district, course type, or vulnerability profile—to help refine or scale your scholarship strategy.

Yes. Participation is optional. You may join the scholar felicitation, mentorship sessions, or request a telephonic/video interaction. Scholar personal details remain confidential for privacy.

Yes. You will be able to appoint:

• Sub-Kartas – Co-admins who can help review profiles, manage settings, and support decision-making.

• Managers – Operational support roles for coordination, communication, and follow-ups.

Note: Some of these enhanced administrative features are currently being developed and will be gradually rolled out on the Kind Circle platform.

Selection is based on four core criteria: academic merit, financial need, verification of your eligibility documents, and your educational aspirations and commitment to higher education.

Being a first-generation college student can work in your favour — preference may also be given to students from rural or semi-urban backgrounds, those pursuing professional or technical education, and students facing acute financial or social hardships. Meeting one or more of these conditions does not guarantee selection, but it is considered alongside the core criteria.

You will typically need to provide:

• Class 10 and Class 12 marksheets (or a provisional result)
• Admission letter or fee receipt from your institution
• Government-issued identity proof
• Family income certificate issued by a competent authority
• Passport-size photograph and bank account details
• A self-declaration regarding eligibility and accuracy of information
• Any additional documents requested during the process

Incomplete, inaccurate, or misleading applications may be rejected without further communication, so please ensure everything is accurate and submitted within the notified timeline. Shortlisted candidates may be contacted for telephonic interaction or document verification.
