I joined diploma after class 10 . Am I eligible for IIT or NIT
IITs do NOT accept diploma holders directly into B.Tech courses.
-
To be eligible, you must:
-
Pass Class 12 with Physics, Chemistry, and Math .
-
Then appear for JEE Main , qualify, and be among the top candidates to take JEE Advanced .
-
So, if you joined diploma after 10th, you must first complete 12th , then follow the regular JEE path.
For NITs (National Institutes of Technology):
-
NITs also do not offer lateral entry into B.Tech through diploma.
Admission is through JEE Main , which requires a Class 12 qualification with PCM.
Some NITs offer lateral entry into 2nd year B.Tech through other programs but not via diploma holders in India .
