JEE Main Seat Allotment FAQs
Ques.Can I participate in the seat allotment in further rounds without accepting the currently offered seat?
Ans. It is advised to not fill-in the choices for the courses that you are not interested. In case, you do not accept the seat, you will be out from the seat allotment procedure and will not be able to participate in further JoSAA rounds. Such candidates can participate in CSAB Special Round (conducted only for NITs, IIITs & GFTIs).
Ques.I got a seat in the first round of allotment. Due to some unavoidable reason, I will not be able to accept the seat at this moment. Can I accept the same seat later?
Ans. No, it is necessary to report in person and accept the seat in the respective seat acceptance period of the round. Failing to do so will result in losing the seat and will be out of seat allotment process in JoSAA. However, such candidates can participate in CSAB Special Round.
Ques. I am from Bhopal and I have been offered a seat in an IIT. Can I report at the RC at NIT Bhopal for accepting the seat?
Ans. No, anyone who is offered a seat in an IIT must report at any of the 17 reporting centers of IITs. The list is available on the JoSAA portal.
Ques.What is the meaning of dual reporting in JEE Main?
Ans. If you have accepted an NIT seat in the previous round and your seat is now upgraded to an IIT, then you have to report at an RC of IITs and accept the seat. Otherwise, you will lose both the seats. Similarly, if a candidate’s seat is changed from an IIT to an NIT, he has to report at an RC of NIT to accept the seat.
Ques. Will there be a spot counselling round for NITs/IIITs/Other-GFTIs?
Ans. No, there is no spot round. But, there will be a special round for NITs/IIITs/Other-GFTIs only after all the 7 rounds of seat allocation are over. This would involve new choice filling where all candidates (including those who are already admitted, non-admitted and those who did not fill choices earlier) can fill-in their choices.
Ques. Is JoSAA responsible for seat matrix data?
Ans. No, JoSAA is not responsible for the seat matrix data. The authority only allocates seats as per the seat matrix data provided by the participating institutes.
