The JoSAA race isn't over yet. Round 1 is just the beginning. Once the JoSAA R1 stage is completed, the counselling body will soon begin JoSSA 2025 Round 2. Before the commencement of round 2, students must complete the following things:

• Accept Your Seat: Choose Freeze, Float, or Slide based on your preference.
• Pay the Seat Acceptance Fee: INR 15,000 for SC/ST/ST-PwD/SC-PwD/OBC-NCL-PwD/GEN-PwD candidates and INR 30,000 for other candidates.
• Upload Documents: Submit all required documents on the JoSAA portal within the deadline.
• Complete Online Reporting: Participate in the document verification process as per schedule. Missing this step can lead to seat cancellation.

The snapshot below showcases all the dates related to NITs & IIITs JoSAA R2 2025:

JoSAA has released the NITs and IIITs R1 cutoffs based on JEE Main marks. Students can check out the table below to access the cutoffs for top 5 NITs and IIITs:

CSAB (Central Seat Allocation Board) and JoSAA (Joint Seat Allocation Authority) are both involved in the seat allocation process for engineering admissions in NITs and IIITs. However, via JoSAA, seats are allotted to all available seats in IITs, NITs, IIEST, IIITs, and other GFTIs. But via CSAB seat is allotted only at NITs and IIITs against the vacant seats left after JoSAA counselling last round based on JEE Main scores.

Failing to complete ALL steps of "Online Reporting" within the specified timeline of the round in which the seat is allocated will lead to the cancellation of the allocated seat, and the candidate will NOT be able to participate in subsequent JoSAA rounds. This is considered as a rejection of the offer, and the candidate forfeits eligibility for admission to any institute through JoSAA 2025.

JoSAA 2025 has just dropped the NIT Warangal R1 cutoffs. Check the table below to view the NIT Warangal Cutoff 2025 vs 2024:

Common mistakes that can jeopardise their admission to prestigious institutions like NITs and IIITs. Here are some of the most frequent pitfalls and how to avoid them:

• Not paying the Seat Acceptance Fee (SAF) on time
• Misunderstanding "Freeze," "Float," and "Slide" options
• Failing to upload the correct documents
• Failing to respond to queries on time
• Not tracking deadlines for each round

JoSAA 2025 has dropped the IIIT Allahabad R1 cutoffs. Check the table below to view the IIIT Allahabad Cutoff 2025 vs 2024:

If you have accepted a seat in a certain round and would like to be considered for a seat of higher preference within the same Institute, you need to choose the option of ‘Slide’. Further, if you are allocated a seat of higher preference in a subsequent round of seat allocation, your earlier accepted seat will be automatically cancelled, and you will have to accept the newly allocated seat. 

If documents like category certificates (GEN-EWS, OBC-NCL, SC, ST, PwD) are found invalid or not produced, the candidate's category tag may be changed for seat allocation purposes. If a seat was allocated based on an invalid document (e.g., a PwD category seat with an invalid PwD certificate), the allocated seat would be cancelled. Thus, students are advised to submit documents carefully!

Myth: You can change your preferences after seat allotment in Round 1.
Fact: Once Round 1 is out, no edits to choice filling are allowed. Choices must be locked before the deadline. Make sure your final preference order is carefully reviewed before locking.

While checking out the NIT seat allotment result 2025, students must keep the following items handy for a smooth process and avoid panic at the last minute:

• JEE Main Application Number
• Date of Birth (as entered in JEE application)
• JoSAA Login Credentials (Password/Security Pin)
• Registered Mobile Number & Email ID

There is no limit on how many choices can be filled in the JoSAA counselling; the candidates can fill out as many choices of institute and course combinations as they want out of the available 627 choices.

Myth: Seat allotment depends only on your JEE Main score.
Fact: While rank is key, other factors like category, home state quota, gender, and seat availability also influence the allotment. A slightly lower rank can still fetch a better seat based on these dynamics.

Candidates must check the below important instructions for JoSAA registration:

• Your IP address will be monitored for security purposes.
• Candidates are advised to keep changing the password at frequent intervals.
• Never share your password and do not respond to any email which asks you for your Login ID/Password. NIC/JoSA does not request such information by email.
• Confidentiality of password is solely the responsibility of the candidate; all care must be taken to protect the password.

In case a student misses the JoSAA Round 1 reporting deadline, the admission is cancelled. However, it doesn't mean that students can't get a seat. Such students can participate in CSAB for the allocation of a fresh seat. In CSAB, the seats left vacant after all the JoSAA rounds are available. For this counselling process, students must do a fresh registration.
