Don’t worry — this guide will show you how to check TS ePASS scholarship status online, what different status messages mean, who’s eligible, and what to do if your payment is stuck.
Let’s dive in.
🌐 What Is TS ePASS?
TS ePASS = Electronic Payment & Application System of Scholarships by the Government of Telangana. It brings all major Post-Matric and Pre-Matric scholarship schemes into one online system — with fee reimbursement + maintenance allowance credited directly to students’ bank accounts (DBT).
You’ll use it for:
-
Post-Matric Scholarships (after Class 10)
-
Pre-Matric Scholarships (select categories)
-
Tuition Fee Reimbursement (college fees paid by govt, fully/partly)
-
Application tracking, corrections, renewal
Official site: 👉 telanganaepass.cgg.gov.in
🎯 Who Can Apply Under TS ePASS?
Eligibility varies a bit by category, but here’s the quick version:
-
Must be a resident of Telangana state.
-
Belong to approved categories: SC, ST, BC, EBC, Minority, Disabled students (as per scheme rules).
-
Studying in recognized institutions within Telangana (and in some cases, outside the state if course not available).
-
Family income within govt limits (differs by category; commonly ~₹2 lakh/yr range—check portal for updated slab).
-
Must meet attendance & promotion rules (pass previous exam, continue in higher class).
If you’re in a professional/technical course (engineering, medicine, etc.) through counseling/admission quota, definitely apply — fee amounts are high and ePASS helps a lot!

🔍 How to Check TS ePASS Scholarship Status (Public Track Tool)
Here’s the easiest way most students check whether their Telangana ePASS payment or application is approved:
-
Visit 👉 telanganaepass.cgg.gov.in
-
On the homepage, look for “Know Your Application Status” or “Status/Know Your Payment” (may appear in different wording each year).
-
Select Academic Year.
-
Enter one of the following (as requested):
-
Application ID or
-
SSC Exam Number / Pass Year / SSC Board or
-
Aadhaar Number (in some modules)
-
-
Fill captcha & click Get Status / Search.
You’ll see a status panel showing stages like Application Received, Verified at College, Verified at District, Sanctioned, Amount Sent to Bank, etc.
💳 Check TS ePASS Payment Status (Fee Reimbursement / Scholarship Credit)
Sometimes your application is approved but you want to confirm if money hit your bank. Do this:
Method 1 – ePASS Payment Details
-
Use the same Status / Know Your Payment option.
-
If released, you’ll see transaction/cheque no., date, amount.
Method 2 – Bank / PFMS Cross-Check
While TS ePASS releases payments through state systems, some disbursements reflect under PFMS. If the portal shows “released,” but bank is silent, you can also check via your bank mini statement or net banking using credited reference like “Social Welfare Dept / ePASS”.
If payment shows released for long (15+ days) but no bank credit, visit your college scholarship in-charge or local Welfare Officer.

Q. Can I check TS ePASS status using Aadhaar number?
Sometimes yes, if portal enables that field during the cycle. Otherwise use Application ID or SSC Hall Ticket No.
Q. My status shows “Rejected by College.” Now what?
Visit your college scholarship cell immediately. Many rejections are due to wrong caste/income doc or unclear scan — fix & resubmit if window open.
Q. When will fee reimbursement come?
After state budget release & verification cycles. Even if late, keep tracking — approved cases usually get credited in batches.
