My backups are Indian colleges (IITs, NITs, VGTI etc., which I am likely to get into given my January JEE MAINS Score).

PS. Yale is also need-blind!

This is a few years old but unlikely to have changed much, 40-45 Indian undergrads at Yale. That’s roughly 10 per undergrad year. So, you have to fancy your chances as being one of around 10 applicants picked from the dozens?hundreds?thousands? of applications they get from India.

IITs are a great option. If you do undergrad in India and come to a good grad school in the US, that’s also a good way to go. Also shown by the example of 3 times as many Indian graduate students as undergrads at Yale.
