Hello friends, I have done lateral Diploma course in E&TC stream. I want to give JEE Advanced now to secure BTech admission in IIT. I would like to know about the eligibility criteria for me to appear in this entrance examination.

There are few students wish to pursue further studies after diploma and for such students, some institute offer lateral entry with direct admission into second year of BTech for diploma holders. but so is not the case with the Indian institute of technology (IITs).

In order to get admission in IIT after diploma, there is no provision for special entry and thus, students who have to appear in the Jee advance examination which is the only way to get into IIT for undergraduate course in engineering.
