Entrance Examination Details

Candidates who clear the qualifying examination are shortlisted based on their performance in JEE Advanced or JEE Main. The merit list is prepared using normalized scores after considering all categories and reservations as per government guidelines.

For candidates appearing in both exams, the best score will be considered for merit ranking. However, candidates must meet the minimum qualifying marks set by the institution to be eligible for counseling.

Seat Allocation & Counseling

The seat allocation process follows a centralized counseling system conducted by the state authority or an independent body like JoSAA. Candidates who qualify are called for counseling sessions based on their ranks and preferences.

During counseling:

• Candidates must log in to the official portal and fill in their choices carefully.
• Each candidate can choose up to 10 preferences among available programs.
• The rank is used to allocate seats according to the preference order and availability.
• Once a seat is allotted, candidates must confirm it online within the stipulated time frame.

Candidates who do not get a seat in their first preference may be offered alternatives based on availability and remaining ranks.
