Competitions, Olympiads & Scholarships for Class 12

Olympiads, competitions and scholarships that are genuinely open to Class 12 students in India, each one checked against the organizer's official information. WiWit lists 694 verified class 12 competitions in India from 392 organizations. They include options 227 available online, 242 free to enter. Last reviewed September 2026.

Class 12 narrows to what still fits alongside boards and entrance preparation, and the listings here reflect that. They include scholarship examinations, international olympiad final stages, research and writing competitions with senior categories, and fellowships and gap-year programmes that open at the end of school. WiWit verifies each listing and shows the dates, so opportunities that fall after the board window are easy to separate from those that clash with it.
