NIT Kolkata Q&A on Admission, Fee, Courses, Placements, Cutoff

Dear Aspirant, hope you are doing well. Sorry to disappoint you but at this category rank it is not possible to get into NITS or GFTIS. You can try for private colleges which accept JEE MAINS Score like Nirma University, Thapar University, PDPU, DAIICT, Sastra University, etc. Hope it helps!! Good luck!!

Dear sir l have 70 % marks in board exam ( mahrashtra ) .Should l eligible for NIT/IIT admissions if my score of JEE is enough good?

greetings raju,

if you are a general category student, 70% is not enough. you need a minimum of 75%.

if you are a reserved category, a relaxation of 10% i.e. 65% is fine.

otherwise, your rank in jee should be superb to make it to the iits or nits.

pls refer to the following link:

Hi i got 74.6% marks in 2018 in cbse board and 73.8% in improvement exam but my best of two is 78% so am i eligible for admission in any nit

Hello aspirant,
The two main criteria for getting admission into nits, iits or iiits is:
1. You should be in top 20 percentile of your respective board
2. You should get a minimum aggregate of 75
% if you're from general or obc category and 65% If you're from sc or St category.
So you fail to satisfy these criterias if you're from general category and if you're from Cbse board
So you won't get admission in nits

I got 78 percentile in mains and I belongs to OBC category and in class 12 I scored 93.5%. Am I eligible to get admissions in NIT.

Hey ShivaniKumari,

Unfortunately the seats in NITs have closing ranks for OBC girls around 94-95 percentile at the extreme. So factually speaking 78 percentile might not fetch you anything. You should consider private colleges that give fee waiver based on JEE Mains percentile or local government colleges. Hope that helped. Check the below link to check if any GFTIs might offer a seat

Sir my rank is 40000 in sc category .I m eligible to get any NIT? Sir

Hi tushar ,
I regret to inform you that with such a low score you cannot get admission into any prestigious college of engineering like nits or iiits.

For the students of sc category to get admission into nits they must have to score atleast a rank of 5k.

And with 40k you cannot even get admission into any GFTis .

Either you take part in any other councelling or you can even take a year drop to prepare for jee 2020.

Hope it helps !!!

i have scored 54% in 12th and i passed jee main in 65k rank am i eligible for any IIT or nit or anything

Hi there.

You are eligible as you passed the eligibility criteria. But for any government college you need percentile more than 95 percentile.

And rank under 15k to get a decent chance for counseling. So with this rank , you won't get any iit or niit .
