Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) scheme acts as an extrinsic intervention. To study the effect of Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) scheme on academic motivation the research was designed to compare the motivational aspects between the girl-students of the beneficiary of the scheme and their non-beneficiary of the scheme. Data was collected by administering Motivation Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) on randomly selected two groups – Study Group ((KGBV) and Reference Group (RG); the number of participants in the two groups were 200 and 247 respectively. In Self-Efficacy, Intrinsic Value, Cognitive Strategy Use, Self-Regulation, and MSLQ in total the KGBV group on an average expressed their significantly higher motivation and in Test Anxiety the result was reversed. Form the result it may be concluded that the KGBV scheme had positive impact in development of academic motivation of the KGBV hostel dwellers.
