What is OJEE Cut-Off 2026?
The OJEE cutoff indicates the minimum qualifying rank/score for admissions to the different colleges/courses through the Odisha Joint Entrance Examination (OJEE).
- It serves as a threshold to assess eligibility to participate in the counselling and seat allotment.
- Cutoffs are expected to be similar to 2025, with only minor variations of approximately ±5–10% depending on exam difficulty and the number of candidates.
- CSE and IT are still the most competitive branches, with an expected closing rank in the range of 12,000–15,000.
- Core branches, such as Mechanical, Civil, and Electrical, have higher closing ranks, which means moderately lower interest.
| Course | Estimated Opening Rank | Estimated Closing Rank |
|---|---|---|
| B.Tech – CSE | 1 | 12,000 |
| B.Tech – ECE | 1 | 18,000 |
| B.Tech – Electrical Engineering | 1 | 20,000 |
| B.Tech – Mechanical Engineering | 1 | 25,000 |
| B.Tech – Civil Engineering | 1 | 30,000 |
| B.Tech – IT | 1 | 15,000 |
OJEE Category-wise Cut-Off for B.Tech 2026
CSE remains the top choice, and the cutoff for the General category is expected to close between 1 and 12,000.
- Reserved categories like OBC and EWS see tighter ranges up to 22,000 and 18,000, respectively, for CSE.
- IT follows closely - With increasing digital and AI-driven opportunities, IT cutoffs mirror CSE trends, closing around 15,000 for General and 22,000 for EWS.
- ECE and Electrical Engineering continue to attract mid-tier rank holders, showing a healthy mix of core + tech appeal, with cutoffs ranging from 18,000–35,000 for General and OBC categories.
- Mechanical and Civil branches show a moderate relaxation - General category cutoffs extend up to 25,000–30,000, reflecting the decline in demand for core branches over software-focused streams.
