NERIST NEE Counselling Process 2026 

The NERIST NEE 2026 counselling process is a crucial phase following the entrance exam and result declaration. NERIST NEE is designed to allocate seats to qualified candidates in various Certificate, Diploma, and Degree programs offered by the North Eastern Regional Institute of Science and Technology. This process is conducted in multiple rounds and ensures that admissions are merit-based, transparent, and systematic.
