My domicile is Karnataka and I belong to general category. I appeared for JEE 2020 mains. I got 67 rank in Karnataka CET-2020 exam. Do I need to enrol for CET councelling for securing seat in NIT Surathkal under home state category? Please advise

Hi,

Admission to nits is taken only on the basis of jee main rank. The Admission to NITK and other centrally funded technical institutes for UG courses are  manged by Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA).

The JEE main april session is going to held in the month of September after the declaration of results counselling process will start for nits.

Although you have a very good rank in kcet but on you the basis of kcet rank you can not get admission to nits. But to have on a safer side you can apply for kcet counselling for admission to the other Karnataka State engeneering colleges.

Hope this helps.

Yes there are better chances for you to get NIT Surathkal from CET counselling from home state category, than from JEE mains.

Hello Dear

No, You don't need to enroll for CET councelling for securing seat in NIT Surathkal under home state Quota. You have to enroll for JOSSA Counselling. From Jossa Counselling, You will get admission to IIT's, IIIT and Nit. CET is not required for admission to NIT.

Hope this information is helpfull for you.

Best of Luck.

hi,

see admission in nits is only based on jee mains score. so if your sole purpose to get admission in nits only then there is no need to enroll for kcet counselling process. however jee man april session exam is starting from tomorrow, once results is declared the counselling would be start. however all nits has reserved 85% of seats for domicile candidates.

however the cutoff score changes every year and it depends on certain factors like number of applicants, questions difficulty level, category of students etc.

hope it would help.
