In addition to graduates, students in their final year of college can apply to the NIT Durgapur curriculum. Minimum qualifying marks for admission are 60% in both the 10th and 12th grades.

What is the admission process of NIT Durgapur?

Scores on the Joint Entrance Examination for Advanced Engineering (JEE Main) are used to determine who gets into the BTech programme at NIT Durgapur.

How to apply for admission to B.Tech at NIT Durgapur?

Candidates must either rank in the top 20% of their class on the High School Exit Exam or have a grade point average of 3.75 or above. Those from SC/ST must have earned a 65% or higher on the 12th-grade Board Exam to be considered.

As with other types of institutions, NITs in India provide financial aid for students of varying socioeconomic backgrounds. Students from low-income families who are seeking tuition waivers must annually provide a new Income Certificate for their household, issued by the appropriate State Government agency. SC/ST/PH students receive a complete tuition waiver. Tuition is waived in full for students from General and Other Backward Classes whose families earn less than Rs 1 lakh per year.

Which entrance scores are accepted at NIT Durgapur?

While your JEE Main rank determines whether or not you get into the B. Tech programme, your GATE scores and CCMT counselling determine whether or not you get into the M.Tech programme.
