NITs intend to support students of higher learning with financial aids. Also along with scholarships, NITs offer fellowship programmes to meritorious students.

NIT Cutoff for BTech Admission
The admission to the B.Tech courses is based on JEE Main and JoSAA counselling. JoSAA releases category-wise and round-wise opening and closing cut-offs/ranks for admissions to BTech and Dual degree programmes in the NITs. Candidates seeking admission into the NITs, have to appear in JoSAA cunselling. Admission to the BTech programmes offered at NITs is based on this single counselling platform. The NIT cutoff depends on the number of candidates appearing in the entrance exam, total candidates applied for admission in NITs, total available seats, and difficulty level of the examination. Take a look at NIT BTech cut offs for some of the top NITs below.
