Comprehensive Guide: IIT's | NIT's | IIIT's
Hi,
A diploma holder can appear in JEE Advanced, by applying JEE Main. But their rank and score in JEE Main will not be considered for admission in NITs and CFTIs. If you are not going to IITs you can apply for other engineering colleges where they take diploma students as lateral entry. After completing a degree you can go for higher studies such as M.Tech, MBA, etc. If you are not interested in continuing in studies you can apply for a job.
I hope it helps.
Hello Aspirant,
You can't give JEE that doesn't mean that you can't give other exams as well. Every state conducts it's own entrance exam for admission to Engineering colleges. If you're eligible then you can give state level entrance exams. You can also give entrance exams for private universities. You're also eligible to give SAT exam for study in foreign universities.
Use the JEE Main 2026 Rank Predictor to estimate your expected rank based on your scores or percentile and plan your college options smartly.
