NIT Raipur fills its BArch seats through several rounds of JoSAA and CSAB counselling. If you get a seat in an early round, you can lock it or wait for a better one. CSAB rounds happen at the very end to fill any remaining vacant seats. It is important to check the portal regularly for all updates and deadlines. 

NIT Raipur uses an automated system to allot BArch seats based on your All India Rank. The process is completely merit-based and follows the government's reservation policies. Your rank must fall within the opening and closing cutoffs for the year. Each category has its own set of seats to ensure a fair distribution. 

NIT Raipur reserves 50% of its BArch seats for students from the state of Chhattisgarh. The other half of the seats are open to students from all over India. This policy helps local students get a world-class education right in their own state. It also brings in a diverse group of students from different cultural backgrounds. 

NIT Raipur offers extra "Supernumerary" seats to encourage more female students to join the BArch course. These seats are added to improve the gender balance in the architecture field. This initiative has made the campus a very inclusive place for women designers. 

NIT Raipur welcomes international and NRI students to the BArch programme through the DASA scheme. These students are selected based on their international exam scores like the SAT. This brings a global perspective to our classrooms and design studios. You will get to collaborate with students from different countries on various projects.

NIT Raipur offers a BArch degree that is currently ranked among the top 35 architecture schools in India. The department has a long history of teaching excellence since its start in 1984.

NIT Raipur requires all BArch aspirants to qualify for the JEE Main Paper 2 exam. Your All India Rank in this specific test is the main factor for admission.
