Hello Aspirant,

As an OCI planning to take admission in an NIT it would be advisable for you to go through the DASA scheme.

You can apply via JEE as well. But JEE doesn’t offer any reservation for the foreign nationals. You have to write JEE Mains along with the Indian students.

Whereas DASA scheme is for foreign nationals alone. So I recommend you to apply via DASA scheme to get admission in NITs.

For further information about the DASA scheme kindly visit this website:

Hope this helps.
