Admission to NITs/IIITs/GFTIs requires students to meet certain criteria. They must have successfully completed the 12th class with a minimum of 75 percent in JEE Mains 2024 or be in the top 20 percentile in their class 12 exam (65% for SC/ST candidates). It is crucial to achieve a 75% score in board exams in order to secure admission to IITs. In case candidates do not meet the eligibility criteria, they have the option to take improvement exams to fulfill the requirements for IIT admissions.
