Yes, you can generally get admission to most colleges with your NIOS 12th certificate with a 77% score, as NIOS is considered equivalent to other state boards and is widely accepted for college admissions across India; however, always check the specific eligibility criteria of the college you are applying to for any potential variations.

• NIOS is recognized:

The National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) is considered a recognized board, meaning most colleges will accept your NIOS certificate for admission.

• Check college specific requirements:

While most colleges accept NIOS, always verify the eligibility criteria on the college website to ensure your marks and subject combination meet their standards.

• Entrance exams may apply:

For certain courses, like engineering, you might need to qualify for an entrance exam even if you have an NIOS certificate.

GOOD LUCK!!
