In 2021, admission to the Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch) program at SPA was primarily based on candidates' scores in Paper 2 of the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) Main, focusing on mathematics, drawing, and architectural awareness. The cut-off scores for JEE Main varied, with the minimum qualifying score determined by SPA. For instance, the cut-off rank for general and OBC categories was approximately 516 and 420, respectively. Eligibility for the B.Arch course required candidates to pass the 10+2 examination with mathematics and obtain a minimum aggregate score (typically 50% or above). Additionally, they needed to qualify in the JEE Main Paper 2 exam with the required cut-off score.SPAfollows the government's reservation policy for admissions, including categories such as SC,ST,OBC,EWS,and PwD. The percentage of seats reserved for each category may vary. Besides JEE Main scores, SPA may consider additional criteria like portfolio evaluations, or interview So refer spav brochure
1. For this course you must clear the cut for jee main paper 3. 2. Application form can be found on NTA site. 3. Reservation not availed. 4. The time delay between successive rounds of josaa counselling should be decreased.
