Architecture is attractive, high paying, and has lots of potential in terms of growth. It is considered as one the chic professions and looked as a profession for elite class students. Architects design structures and give physical face-lift as well as provide functional utility, safety and economy. Architects focus on how to make living easy and comfortable for people ranging from lower-middle class to upper-class and offer them housing and shelter with luxury and style.
Moreover, increased demand for luxury accommodation from certain section of people drives architects to work on building such designs which fulfill the specific requirements.
On the basis of your JEE rank, you can get admission in architecture in some govt.college but if you want to take admission in some private university like LPU, SRM, Sharda etc than you need to give NATA test and you rank of JEE can help you get a scholarship form them.
For more information check the websites of the universities.
Good luck.
