Eligibility for JEE Advanced 2024 Counselling

Candidates who qualify JEE Advanced are allowed to participate in JEE Advanced 2024 Counselling for admission to various UG courses offered by IITs. However, these candidates should fulfill the following eligibility criteria to take part in the counseling and seat allotment process.

1. Candidates should have obtained a rank in the Common Rank List in JEE Advanced.
2.  In the case of percentile, the candidate should be among the top 2.5 lakh students in JEE Main 2024.
3. The aggregate marks obtained in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Language (Language paper in which candidates have scored higher marks will be taken into consideration) will be used to calculate the aggregate in the qualifying examination. If any of these are not evaluated during the final year, (for eg. Three-year diploma courses) the marks of the previous year will be taken into consideration.
4. Candidates who have failed in one or more than one subject in the qualifying exam should appear for the exam in 2024 and clear it in this attempt.
5. In cases where the qualifying board offers only letter grades, the candidates are required to procure a letter from the board indicating the aggregate marks of the candidate. Otherwise, the decision in such matters will be taken by the Joint Implementation Committee of JEE Advanced 2024. The decision of the committee would be final and no request for any review would be considered.
6. The marks of Class 12th would be considered only, in case, the board provides the marks for both Class 11th and 12th in the qualifying examination. If the board provides only the aggregate marks for qualifying examination, then the aggregate marks will be considered for evaluation.

• Log in using the Registration No (User ID), JEE Advanced 2024 Roll No and Password to check their seat allotment status.
• Students should check their status of Seat Allotment at the end of every round.
• Allotments might change due to upgradation. Hence, students should pay attention to this.
• The soft copy of the category (SC/ST/OBC-NCL) certificates uploaded at the time of online registration will be scrutinized against originals during seat allocation
• If the certificates uploaded are found to be inappropriate, the student will be treated as General only if their score in the Paper-1 of JEE Main is above the cutoff score for General category.

Note: The seat allocation in JEE Advanced 2024 Counselling would be completed within three rounds. All the candidates are therefore advised to check the status after the completion of every round, as there is a possibility that the seats allotted to them are upgraded because other students have either withdrawn from the course or have accepted seats they prefer.
