I have completed diploma in civil engineering. I am interested in admission at IIT. Please give me information about the process of getting admission in IIT & link of website about that.

Indian Institute of Technology is the premier institute for engineering courses in India. Diploma candidates are eligible for Joint Entrance Examination Advanced stage for admission in IITs.

The notification for next JEE is yet to be released. Once it is released, you can apply for this exam at official website of Joint Entrance Examination. CBSE is the examination conducting authority of this exam.

Other than JEE, you can apply for Lateral Entry Entrance test to get admission in state government technical colleges subject to 60% marks in diploma in civil engineering.

You can apply for JEE Main and Advanced, if you are a diploma in civil engineering. You will be treated as class 12th candidate and admission will be available only in first year.

Just make sure you are well prepared for the entrance exam. Admission is only available based in merit. For lateral entry admission, you have to look for other entrance exams.

To get admission in IIT after completion of your Diploma in Civil Engineering course, you should have to appear in JEE Main and Advance examination. Being a Diploma holder, you are not eligible to apply for admission in NIT with the help of JEE Main examination score. You have to qualify and secure good rank in JEE Main examination and participate in the counselling process to get admission for pursuing your higher studies.
