    • SC, ST and PH students: ₹5,000
  5. Save the fee payment receipt generated on the portal.
  6. Select your preference — Freeze or Float — from the drop-down menu and confirm the submission.

All payments are accepted through online mode only. No offline demand drafts or cash payments are accepted during the online reporting phase.


Freeze vs Float in OJEE 2026: Which Option to Choose?

After paying the acceptance fee, every allotted student must select one of two options. This choice determines whether you remain in the counselling pool for Round 2 and Round 3.

Option What It Means Best When
Freeze You permanently accept the Round 1 allotment and exit the counselling pool. You will not be considered for further rounds. You are fully satisfied with the allotted institute and branch and do not want any uncertainty.
Float You retain the Round 1 seat as a fallback but remain eligible for a better seat in Round 2 or Round 3. If a higher-preference seat is allotted in a later round, the Round 1 seat is released automatically. You want a better institute or branch and are willing to stay in the process.

Students who select Freeze in Round 1 must report physically to their allotted institute with original documents by August 3, 2026. Those who select Float will receive a fresh allotment in Round 2 and must complete online reporting again within the Round 2 window.


Documents Required for OJEE 2026 Online Reporting

All documents must be uploaded as self-attested scanned copies during online reporting. For physical reporting at the institute, carry the originals and two sets of self-attested photocopies of each document.

Document Purpose
OJEE 2026 Rank Card Proof of eligibility and rank
Class 10 Certificate and Mark Sheet Age proof and secondary qualification
Class 12 / Plus Two Mark Sheet and Pass Certificate Qualifying examination record
All Semester Diploma Mark Sheets (lateral-entry students) Diploma qualification proof
Diploma Pass / Provisional Certificate (lateral-entry students) Pass certificate for diploma holders
Odisha Nativity / Residence Certificate Mandatory to claim Odisha state quota seats; must be issued online by a Tahsildar (Revenue Officer)
Category Certificate (SC / ST / SEBC / EWS / PH, if applicable) Reservation benefit claim
Aadhaar Card or valid government photo ID Identity verification
Provisional Allotment Letter Proof of seat allotment from OJEE portal
Fee payment receipt Proof of part admission fee payment
Six recent passport-size photographs Institute records and ID card

The Odisha Nativity or Residence Certificate must be generated online by a Revenue Officer not below the rank of Tahsildar. Students who do not have this certificate cannot claim state quota benefits during OJEE 2026 counselling.


How to Report to Your Allotted College After OJEE 2026

Physical reporting is required only after all counselling rounds are complete — not after Round 1 alone. Students who selected Freeze in Round 1, or whoever receives their final seat allotment, must report to the institute in person by August 3, 2026.

  1. Download the final allotment letter from ojee.nic.in after the last counselling round.
  2. Visit the allotted institute on or before the physical reporting deadline.
  3. Carry all original documents and two sets of self-attested photocopies of each.
  4. Submit documents to the institute’s admission cell for verification.
  5. Pay the remaining tuition fee directly to the institute as per their schedule. The part admission fee already paid online is adjusted against the total payable amount.
  6. Collect your joining report, student ID and other onboarding materials from the institute.

Failure to report physically by the deadline will result in cancellation of admission even if all online steps were completed on time. Retain photocopies of all submitted documents for your records.
