For IIT admissions, the students will first have to attempt JEE Main. If they qualify JEE Main as one of the top 2,50,000 candidates, then they will be eligible for JEE Advanced. After qualifying JEE Advanced, they will have to participate in the common counselling process held by Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA). Admissions to IITs will be based on the ranks secured, preferences and availability of seats.
