    Yes, admission to Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) is possible for people with disabilities (PwD). PwD candidates in all categories are eligible for a 5% reservation at the IITs through the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Advanced. Furthermore, special allowances are given to these candidates, including loosened qualifying requirements and cutoff scores. In order to meet the various demands of PwD students, the IITs also make sure that its infrastructure and support systems are accessible, which increases inclusivity inside the university.
