Hi Dear,

To get admission into IITs you need to clear Jee advanced examination. You need to fill your choice of colleges along with their branches in priority during the counselling, and you will be alloted seat if your choice matches with your rank. Fee payment at IITs would be based on your parent annual income and there are 3 different categories below 1lakh ,1-5lakhs and above 5 lakhs. You are also eligible to apply for loan under Vidyalakshmi scheme if you got admission into iit.


All the best
