Admissions Overview
The admission process for the Civil Engineering diploma program at Government Polytechnic Bazpur is highly competitive and merit-based. The primary entrance examination accepted is JEE Main, with additional consideration given to students who qualify through JEE Advanced or other recognized national-level tests.
Step-by-Step Admission Process
- Application Submission: Candidates must submit their applications online through the official portal of the state's education department. The application form includes personal details, academic records, and choice preferences for various categories.
- Eligibility Verification: After submission, candidates undergo a verification process to confirm eligibility based on age limits, qualifying examination scores, and subject combinations.
- Admit Card Generation: Eligible candidates receive admit cards containing their roll numbers, exam centers, and date-time schedules for the entrance examinations.
- Entrance Examination: Candidates appear for either JEE Main or JEE Advanced depending on their eligibility. The examination tests knowledge in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and general aptitude.
- Merit List Preparation: Based on performance in the entrance exam, merit lists are prepared for each category (General, OBC-NCL, SC, ST, EWS, PwD). Candidates with higher scores are ranked accordingly.
- Counseling Session: Qualified candidates participate in online or offline counseling sessions where they can choose their preferred institution and branch based on available seats and their rank.
- Seat Acceptance: Once a seat is allocated, candidates must confirm acceptance by paying the required fees within the specified deadline. Failure to do so results in forfeiture of the seat.
