I'm studying diploma in civil engineering in karnataka. How can I get into IIT Madras.
Dear student,
To get admission into IITs you must qualify in JEE Advanced exam. To get qualified for JEE Advanced exam you should write JEE Mains. In IITs point of view, JEE Mains only provides eligibility for writing JEE Advanced.
So, there is not direct admission for lateral entry in IITs, JEE Mains and JEE Advanced exams are compulsory to get the seat in IITs. Most of the IITs, NITs or Colleges gives lateral entry opportunity. There will be few percentage of seats reserved for Lateral Entry students in most of the colleges in India.
Hope this information helped you.
Thank you!!
