Rank Trends Analysis
The analysis of cut-off ranks over the last decade reveals a consistent trend of decreasing ranks, indicating an increase in competition for admission. The general category ranks have decreased from 3500 in 2015 to 1600 in 2024, reflecting the growing popularity of RTU's engineering programs.
The EWS category ranks have also decreased, from 3000 in 2015 to 1200 in 2024. This trend suggests that more students from the EWS category are aspiring to study at RTU, leading to increased competition.
The OBC category ranks have decreased from 3200 in 2015 to 1400 in 2024. This decrease indicates a growing interest in RTU among OBC students, which has resulted in a higher cut-off rank.
The SC category ranks have decreased from 3800 in 2015 to 1900 in 2024. This trend reflects the increasing number of SC students applying to RTU, leading to a higher cut-off rank.
The ST category ranks have decreased from 4000 in 2015 to 2100 in 2024. This decrease indicates a growing interest in RTU among ST students, resulting in a higher cut-off rank.
The PwD category ranks have decreased from 3500 in 2015 to 1600 in 2024. This trend reflects the increasing number of PwD students applying to RTU, leading to a higher cut-off rank.
JoSAA/CSAB Counseling Process
The admission process for RTU's engineering programs is conducted through the JoSAA (Joint Seat Allocation Authority) and CSAB (Central Seat Allocation Board) counseling process. The process begins with the release of the cut-off ranks by the respective authorities.
Students who have appeared for JEE Main or other qualifying examinations must register for the JoSAA/CSAB counseling process. The registration process involves filling out a detailed application form and uploading necessary documents.
After the registration, students must participate in the JoSAA/CSAB counseling rounds, where they can choose their preferred institutions and programs. The counseling process is conducted in multiple rounds, with each round offering seats to students based on their ranks and preferences.
During the counseling process, students must confirm their seat allocation by paying the required fees and submitting necessary documents. The university provides detailed guidance to students throughout the counseling process to ensure a smooth admission experience.
The JoSAA/CSAB counseling process is designed to ensure fair and transparent allocation of seats based on merit and preferences. Students are encouraged to carefully review the eligibility criteria and counseling procedures to maximize their chances of securing admission to their preferred program at RTU.
