With a GMR of 38,729 and TFW rank of 9,249 in WBJEE 2025, you have a fair chance of getting a TFW seat in mid-tier colleges like Techno Main Salt Lake, University of Calcutta, or similar institutes for branches such as CSE, IT, or ECE, since their previous TFW cutoffs were within this range however, top colleges like Jadavpur University won’t be possible as their TFW cutoffs stay below 3,000.

With a GMR of 38,729 and a TFW rank of 9,249 in WBJEE 2025, you do have a chance of getting a TFW seat, but it will mostly depend on cutoffs and the branch you are targeting. Generally, TFW seats are limited and are given based on TFW rank, so your chances are better in lower demand branches and in colleges outside Kolkata.

You may not get CSE, IT, or ECE in top colleges like Jadavpur University, IEM, or Heritage because the TFW cutoffs are usually much lower there. But you stand a chance in private colleges and some government engineering colleges in branches like Mechanical, Electrical, Civil, or Chemical.

Yes, with a TFW rank of 9249, you do stand a chance. The Tuition Fee Waiver (TFW) scheme generally covers 5% of seats in each college. Top colleges like Jadavpur University or IIEST Shibpur may not be possible at this rank, but you can expect options in good private and semi-government colleges. Some likely options are:

  1. Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata
  2. Haldia Institute of Technology
  3. Techno Main Salt Lake
  4. Government College of Engineering & Ceramic Technology
  5. Narula Institute of Technology

Thank you!

Definately you can get one of these tfw seats like Haldia Institute of Technology, Narula Institute of Technology, B.P. Poddar Institute of Management & Technology, Future Institute of Engineering & Management, Sonarpur, Guru Nanak Institute of Technology Abacus Institute of Engineering & Management, Bankura Unnayani Institute of Engineering, based on WBJEE previous years' closing ranks .

Also, WBJEE TFW DOCUMENTS REQUIRED for WBJEE counselling process,so make sure you have all the documents before counselling.

Good luck!!
