NIT MSc Admission Eligibility Criteria 2022 for IIT JAM Aspirants

National Institute of Technology (NITs) is always the second choice for students who want to get admission for MSc after JAM 2021. There are many courses provided by NITs for MSc in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics and these NITs have lenient admission eligibility criteria than IITs. So, students from BTech, BSc general, and Hons. are eligible for MSc Admissions.

Candidates who have missed the seat at IITs can apply for top NITs for MSc after satisfying the NITs Admission Eligibility Criteria.

The selected students can check their results by entering the JAM registration ID-password and check cut-off marks for NIT MSc admissions through the official website.
