A good college prefers applicants with good academics, good SAT score and good profile that is you must contribute to the class, and you must build your profile accordingly. Extracurricular activities are very important. You will be considered for financial aid automatically when you apply.

Hi Gajanan,
NIOS won't be a problem for you to pursue higher studies abroad. But there are certain requirements like taking a certain number of subjects for the 11th and 12th. Also you may inquire @ the university regarding the course structure of your preference, fees, etc.
All the best.
