JEE Main 2014; Criteria for Engineering Admission

Admission criteria to Undergraduate Engineering Programs at NITs, IIITs, Other Centrally Funded Technical Institutions, Institutions funded by participating State Governments, and other Institutions shall include the performance in the class XII/equivalent qualifying Examination and in the Joint Entrance Examination ( JEE Main 2014). The Paper-1 (B. E./B. Tech.) of JEE Main 2014 will also be an eligibility test for the JEE Advanced 2014, which the candidate has to take if he/she is aspiring for admission to the undergraduate programmes offered by the IITs in India.
The States of Gujarat, Maharashtra, Nagaland and Odisha have joined JEE Main system since current year 2014. Therefore, the candidates seeking admission to the institutions in these states (both Govt as well as Private), which were earlier admitting based on their State Level Examination, are also advised to fill in the JEE Main  2014 application form online.
