Students must follow important instructions regarding seat allotment during JEE Advanced 2025 counselling. These key points will help ensure a smooth and accurate allocation process:
Ans: If you forget to lock your choices before the deadline, the system will automatically lock your most recent choices after the last date. However, this may not reflect your final preference order. It’s important to log in and lock your choices manually to ensure you are considered for the colleges and courses you truly prefer.
Ans: Yes, you can change, reorder, or delete your college and course preferences during the choice filling period. Once the deadline passes and the system locks your choices, you won’t be able to make any changes. Always review your choices before final submission.
Ans: In JEE Advanced Counselling 2025, if you accept a seat but choose the ‘float’ or ‘slide’ option, your seat can be upgraded in later rounds based on your higher preferences and availability. You must meet all requirements like fee payment and document verification to remain eligible for upgradation.
Ans: No, once you accept a seat and choose the ‘freeze’ option, you will not be considered for further rounds. However, if you choose ‘float’ or ‘slide’, you must actively follow each round to track changes. Failing to respond or upload documents may lead to seat cancellation.
Ans: Yes, you can participate in counselling for both IITs and NIT+ institutes through JoSAA 2025. But once you accept a seat in an IIT and freeze it, you cannot switch to the NIT+ system. Choose your preferences wisely before locking.
Ans: To check your seat allotment result, visit the official JoSAA portal, log in using your JEE Advanced 2025 roll number and password, and view your allocation. Make sure to download the seat allotment letter and take further steps based on your allotment status.
Ans: If you experience technical difficulties while registering or submitting choices, use the official JoSAA helpdesk or contact the nearest reporting centre. It’s important not to delay because missing deadlines due to technical problems might still lead to disqualification from the counselling process.
