With the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF), the Education Ministry ranks top institutions of higher education under different categories. These include categories for engineering and medical colleges, among others. Admission to undergraduate medical programmes, including MBBS and BDS, is offered based on the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET). Most of the top engineering institutes, including the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) use the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main and Advanced for UG admission.
Some engineering colleges also use state-level exams, or their own entrance tests, and Class 12 board exam marks for undergraduate admission.
Students seeking admission to engineering and medical courses through JEE Main 2021 and NEET 2021 can check these lists based on NIRF rankings.
