A lot of my friends studied NERIST. According to them, it offers admission in three modules, Certificate, Diploma, and Degree programs, based on the entrance scores in NEE 1, NEE 2, and NEE 3, respectively.
The eligibility for taking the NEE 1 exam is to pass matriculation or 10th class. It offers admission in the certificate program equivalent to ITI or 10+2 class as declared by UGC.
Therefore, if you take admission through NEE 1 in NERIST, two years down the line of studying the basic module, you will be equivalent to an HSC student. So, yes, you can appear for JEE.
One of my friends took admission in NERIST. According to him, your luck will play a big part in bagging the seats. Students who have been far behind you in the waiting list ended up getting admission. Luck plays a major role because some students do not attend the counseling session which leaves some of the seats vacant.
In the case of Arunachal Pradesh, however, the counseling session for the students belonging to that state is held on another day. So if a student does get a seat, it may not be the one they were looking for.
