Hii,

Thanks for reaching out!

Yes, since you’re a resident of Maharashtra, you can apply for TFWS only if you had appeared for MHT CET. Since you didn’t appear for MHT CET but gave JEE Mains, you won’t be eligible for TFWS seats under CAP based on JEE scores.Now, about admission in DJ Sanghvi College or better colleges in Mumbai with a 96.03 percentile (AIR 59988) in JEE Mains. You have a fair chance of getting into private engineering colleges like DJ Sanghvi (though competition is high), Thadomal Shahani, or KJ Somaiya.Admission will depend on branch preference. For top branches like CSE/IT, cut-offs are high even in private colleges.

For scholarships DJ Sanghvi and some other colleges offer merit-based scholarships or installment fee options. You can also apply for NSP or state-level scholarships.

I’d recommend applying during the JEE counselling rounds, keep checking the cut-offs, and reach out to the admission cell directly for clarity on fee waivers.

All the best !
