Engineering Colleges accepting JAC Delhi for B.Tech in India

Yes. You can. Both counselling has different purpose. JoSAA is for admission to IIT and NIT+ system, while JAC Delhi is for admission to IIIT D, NSUT, DTU, DSEU, and IGDTUW. Admission via both JoSAA and JAC Delhi is based on JEE Main ranks.

BE/B.Tech Course at DTU, IGDTUW, NSUT, DSEU and Dual Degree (B.Tech+MBA) at IGDTUW: A candidate securing 60% or more marks in the aggregate of Physics Chemistry and Mathematics, and having passed English as a subject of study at the Senior School Certificate Examination Level (Core or Elective) will be considered eligible for admission to the first semester of B.Tech/BE course provided he/she has passed in each subject separately. B.Tech Course at IIIT D: A candidate who has secured 80% or more marks in the aggregate of the best of five subjects including Physics Chemistry & Mathematics and 80% or more in Mathematics in the qualifying examination will be considered eligible.

Joint admission counseling (JAC) is conducted for admission to 5 institutes of the Delhi government, including DTU. You can get a seat in the B.E. , B.Tech. , and B.Arch. Courses offered by these institutions. The participating colleges in JAC include:

1. Delhi Technological University (DTU)
2. Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women (IGDTUW)
3. Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology Delhi (IIIT-D)
4. Delhi Skill and Entrepreneurship University (DSEU)
5. Netaji Subhas University of Technology (NSUT)

The whole process is done in five rounds, including spot round admission. There are 85% of seats reserved for candidates from the Delhi region in the JAC.

Usually, the cutoff for DTU stays around 90, even for the reserved categories. Therefore, getting into B.Tech courses at DTU is difficult with a JEE Main percentile score of 90 or below. The cutoff also goes high and low every year, depending on the following factors: Number of aspirants registered, The difficulty level of the exam, Total number of seats available, total number of applications received for a particular program, and the category under which admission is sought. Therefore, it is very difficult to predict the exact cutoff and give an exact answer to this question.

It may not be possible for you to change your details in your JEE Main application form once the admission process has begun. JEE Main correction window does open for some time but that is for the application process only. Thus, you cannot change your category in the JEE Application form for the counselling.

No, candidates who pass class 12 in 2023 cannot appear in JEE Main 2026 and hence they cannot participate in JAC Delhi counselling.
