Hey everyone, the wait is finally over!

"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." - Eleanor Roosevelt

This inspirational quote perfectly captures the excitement surrounding the first round of JoSAA Counselling 2024, which begins today, June 20th, at 10 AM.

Here's a quick rundown of everything you need to know

• Massive Seat Offering: JoSAA is conducting a joint counselling process for a staggering 59,917 seats across 121 prestigious colleges, including IITs, NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs.
• First Round Seat Allotment & Reporting: Buckle up! The first round of seat allocation results will be announced today. If you're lucky enough to secure a seat, you'll need to report online between June 20th and 24th. Don't miss this crucial step!
• Reporting Online is Mandatory: Remember, failing to report online effectively removes you from further rounds of counselling.
• Depositing Seat Acceptance Fee: This is where things get real. After online reporting, students will need to deposit the seat acceptance fee and choose from "freeze," "float," or "slide" options. This fee varies depending on your category.
• Required Documents for Verification: Get your documents ready! You'll need to scan and upload your class 10th & 12th mark sheets, category documents (if applicable), medical certificate, bank cheque copy, and JEE-Main/Advanced admit card. OBC & EWS students ensure your documents are dated after April 1st, 2024.
• Understanding Counselling Options: Here's a breakdown of the crucial "freeze," "float," and "slide" options:
• Freeze: Choose this if you're absolutely delighted with your allotted seat and want to opt-out of further rounds.
• Float: This option allows you to participate in the next round of counselling while holding on to your current allocated seat.
• Slide: Hoping for an upward movement within the same college? Float with the slide option to get a chance at a higher-ranked branch within your chosen institute.
• Document Verification & Deficiency Response: The JoSAA Verification Authority will review your uploaded documents. Be prepared to respond to any identified deficiencies by June 25th to avoid seat cancellation.
