Dear Himanshu,
MIT is one of the most selective universities, to apply for a UG program take the SAT or the ACT. Excellent SAT or ACT performance is a must, however, they will look at your profile holistically, therefore, you must not only excel in your academics but also in your extracurricular activities. They don't want boring students. You must be an all-rounder, take part in sports, be innovative, be intelligent and what not. Go through their admission page. You may check out the Ivy League universities in USA which are known for its selectiveness and connotations of academic excellence. Non Ivy Leagues such as Stanford University

Hi, MIT provides need-based scholarship particularly if you are applying for an undergraduate program. The scholarship will depend on your financial background and you need to demonstrate the same. Applications are considered automatically when you apply for admission. But, you need to have an outstanding profile to deserve the MIT scholarship.

Hi Ganesh,
You can, but you must be willing to take up a Ph.D since the MS will eventually lead to a Ph.D and they also admit students who want to be potential researchers. You must check the MIT website for the complete details. Certain pre-requisite courses, GRE, etc., must be taken.
