From the 2008-09 academic year, the out-of-state students will be admitted based on their national ranks. The admission process to some of India's finest engineering colleges has been flawed all these years, with students having lower marks getting a chance to study instead of their meritorious peers. To rectify this, the HRD ministry has decided to alter the admission process for the NITs.
Fifty per cent of NIT seats are reserved for students of the particular state where the institute is located. The remaining seats were till now reserved for students hailing from other states and Union Territories according to the population of that state. The state quota stays, the remaining 50% of seats in the 20 NITs, which have a total student intake of 9,580, will now be given to out-state students based on their all-India AIEEE rank and not the state rank.
