Engineering Admission with or without DASA

Engineering Admissions in India for NRIs with & without DASA/CIWG:

Getting admitted to engineering colleges in India is a hectic process as there are thousands and lakhs of applicants for a few numbers of seats. The process becomes even more cumbersome for students living abroad. The students living abroad fall into three categories as

Person of Indian Origin (PIO) are a non-Indian resident who is given a 15-year visa but it has been discontinued later.
Overseas Citizens of India (OCI) are those non-Indian citizens who are given lifetime visa to live and work in India with a minimum possible amount of restrictions.
A non-Resident Indian (NRI) is a legal citizen of India living in another country due to work and other unavoidable reasons.

The students falling into the category of NRI, PIO, and OCI can get admission into engineering colleges in India through the DASA scheme.

DASA is a short form for Direct Admission of Students Abroad. DASA is a scheme launched by the Ministry of Human Resource Development of the Government of India for admission of NRI into the premier Institutions of India.

The admission under the DASA scheme into UG and PG educational programs for the year 2023 is coordinated by NIT Warangal, India.

There are a few colleges that offer admission into Under Graduate programs in Engineering/ Architecture/ Planning to the NRI students under the DASA scheme. There are about 31 NITs, 11 IIITs, 3 SPAs, and 16 CFTIs under the DASA scheme.

Will you be applying for DASA / CIWG 2023 or years after that? You must then prepare for JEE Main.
