You should have done 12th board before diploma , that is the only requirement. If Yes, then only you can join for b tech courses in IIT through jee advance.

Hello Anirudha Biswas. Thanks for contacting Careers360 and we hope we will be able to answer your query.

T he answer to your question is unfortunately, " no ". The IITs and the NITs have strict rules as laid down by the Government of India to not accept diploma holders for direct admissions into their B.Tech courses.

However, what you can do is: join any college that accepts admission by lateral entry. Then after pursuing your undergraduate studies, you prepare seriously for GATE from your third year itself. In this way, you can join the IITs for your M. Tech course.

Hope this helps you and all the best!

Hey Anirudha.



Yes, you can. You'll need to qualify through JEE Main and JEE advanced and you can get admission for first year of four year degree course.



Many state or private colleges take admission of diploma holder in second year directly but not the IITs or NITs.



All the best.
