Hello aspirant,

IIST does not mention NCC as a part of it in any of the information given so far, so I am assuming that it is not available. You can, therefore, join NCC as an open cadet. ... You will have to visit the nearest NCC unit near your college and meet the subedar major and they will guide you regarding the further procedure.

It is conducted by Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology. ... IIST offers admission on the basis of scores of national level exams for like JEE Main, JEE Advance, GATE, JEST, UGC NET etc. No entrance test will be organized by the institution for admission into the courses.

Thankyou

This institute is exclusive to Indian citizens. The eligibility criteria state that the candidate must have secured the minimum aggregate of 75% marks in 12th board or equivalent exam and some castes have been given the relaxation in this aggregate by 5%.

For the General Category, there must be at least 20% aggregate and 5% marks in each subject for being admitted. For OBC's, at least 18% marks should be there as aggregate and 4.5% in PCM. For SC/ST/PD the minimum aggregate is 10% marks with at least 2.5% in PCM.

The application is to be filled online. IIST does not mention NCC as a part of it in any of the information given so far, so I am assuming that it is not available. You can, therefore, join NCC as an open cadet. You will have to decide which wing you want to join- army, navy or Air Force. You will have to visit the nearest NCC unit near your college and meet the subedar major and they will guide you regarding the further procedure. You will be mostly referred to as a place where you all be tested for your physical efficiency and will also have to give a written test and interview.
