Hi Suneel, Yes, you can apply for. DASA stands for Direct Admission of Students Abroad. It is an initiative by the Government of India. Only NRIs (Non Resident Indian), foreign nationals and PIOs (Person of Indian Origin) are eligible for the DASA scheme. DASA requires applicants to write SAT Subject Tests in Physics, Chemistry and Math Level 2 instead of the standard JEE Mains in order to get admission into NITs, IIITs and other premier institutes of India (IITs not included). But it is not a complete cakewalk. DASA applicants have to pay a sum of 8ooo$ per annum.
