Dear Student, 

It is unlikely that you will be eligible to get admission to the National Institute of Technology Hamirpur with 88 percentile marks in JEE Main 2025, as the EWS cutoff for NIT Hamirpur closes at 95 percentile marks. However, as per the latest expected cutoff and admission trends, you can expect branches like mechanical engineering, civil engineering, and electrical engineering at NIT Hamirpur.
