Hello,
You can't apply to a NIT using your JEE Advance rank. NITs strictly will accept your JEE Mains rank which is a combination of your JEE Main marks and your Board Examination percentage. Any result apart from this is not accepted by the NITs.
You can however take admission in the following colleges on the basis of your JEE Advance Rank.
All the IITs (duh, obviously :p)
ISM - Dhanabad
IISc, Bangalore
IIPE, Visakapatnam
All the IISERs
IIST, Thiruvananthapuram
RGIPT, Rae Bareli
I hope this would help you. For further queries please feel free to write me down in the comment box.
