JoSAA Counselling 2027 — Expected Timeline

Round	Expected Date	What Happens
Registration & Choice Filling	June 2027 (second week)	Register on JoSAA portal, fill college + branch preferences
Round 1 Seat Allotment	June 2027 (third week)	First seat allotment based on rank + preferences

During JoSAA counselling, you can "float" (keep your current allotment but stay in later rounds for an upgrade), "slide" (accept a better branch at the same college), or "freeze" (accept your seat and exit counselling). Understanding these options is critical — a wrong choice can cost you a better seat.

Registration Checklist

Get these ready before registration opens to avoid last-minute scrambles:

Aadhaar card — linked to your mobile number
Class 10 marksheet — for date of birth proof
Class 12 marksheet or appearing certificate
Passport-size photograph — white background, recent, clear face
Signature scan — on white paper, blue/black ink

Valid email and mobile number — you will receive OTPs and updates here
Debit card / Net banking / UPI — for fee payment (Rs 650-1300 depending on category)

Key Reminders

Set calendar reminders for registration opening day. Servers get overloaded on the last day — register early.
Download admit card immediately. Do not rely on last-minute downloads — server crashes are common.
Print 2-3 copies of admit card. Carry all of them to the exam centre.
Check exam centre location in advance. Visit the centre a day before if possible, especially in unfamiliar cities.
Keep original documents ready for JoSAA counselling. Missing documents during verification means losing your seat.

All dates are predicted based on NTA's 2024-2026 patterns and are subject to change. Always verify on the official NTA website. For exam preparation, see our JEE 2027 preparation guide. Last updated: March 2026.
