Description
The Direct Admission of Students Abroad (DASA) scheme, launched by the Ministry of Education (MoE), is designed to assist overseas students in securing admission to high-quality technical programs at prominent institutions in India.
About DASA Scheme

This initiative aims to provide overseas students with access to India's top-tier educational infrastructure, fostering international collaboration and excellence in technical education.
