Hi,

No changes can be made now as the correction window for JEE Main 2019 was January: 08 – 14 Oct 2018 and April: 11 Mar – 15 Mar 2019. As of now, you will get colleges as per the common merit list (CML). Still you can send a mail at nta@nic.in along with supporting caste documents giving proper reasons why you did not change it earlier.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!
