Chennai: A sports quota will be included for admission to engineering degree programmes at IIT Madras from the coming academic year. This marks the first time a sports quota is being provided for admission to IITs in the country.

The applicants should have qualified in the JEE-Advanced entrance test. However, their admission will be through Sports Excellence Admission (SEA) instead of the general counselling of the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA). There will be a special portal for this purpose.
