Chandigarh University does not explicitly reserve seperate seats exclusively for JEE Main candidates in specialised branches like Biotechnology, Food Technology, or Chemical Engineering. However, JEE qualified students recieve merit-based advantages, including priority counseling and eligibilty for schalorships. Admissions are offered based on overall merit, seat availability, and entrance route (JEE or CUCET), ensuring fairness. This approach maintains academic inclusivity while rewarding students who appear in national-level exams. Chandigarh University's transparent process balances accessibility and merit recognition, allowing JEE and non-JEE students equal opportunity to secure seats in emering and traditional engineering streams.
