Course
In JAC-2015, we are following the same eligibility conditions as adopted by Central
Counselling board. Some important points are:
1. All India Rank prepared by CBSE on the basis of score in JEE (Main)-2015 and normalised
score in Class 12 or equivalent qualifying exam (60% & 40% weightage respectively) shall
be used for admission to B.E./B.Tech. and B. Architecture for JAC-2015. The cut off
marks/criteria for eligibility for various categories shall be decided by CBSE on the
declaration of the result of JEE (Main)-2015
2. The candidates belonging to Scheduled Caste/Scheduled Tribes and Persons with Disability
(PwD) shall be eligible on the basis of relaxed criteria (cut off) determined by CBSE for the
year 2015 for Central Counselling as indicated above.
3. The candidates belonging to Backward Classes shall be eligible on the basis of relaxed
criteria (cut off) determined by CBSE for the year 2015 for Central Counselling for Other
Backward Class (OBC) if they belong to Non-Creamy Layer (NCL).
IMPORTANT NOTES
1. The candidates desirous to apply under various categories other than Persons with Disability
(PwD), Scheduled Caste/Scheduled Tribes (SC/ST) and Backward Classes (BC); the cut off
marks for eligibility shall be same as applicable for the General or Open category.
2. The candidates desirous to apply under various categories such as Persons with Disability
(PwD) or Scheduled Caste/Scheduled Tribes (SC/ST) or Backward Classes (BC); the cut off
marks for eligibility shall be the marks decided by the CBSE. The lower percentage of marks
in Class 12th or equivalent qualifying exam and/or relaxed criteria (cut off) for one category
cannot be considered for reservation to other categories, thereby implying that these
candidates will not be considered for reservation under any other category with relaxed
criteria. This can be explained with an example. Say, a candidate XXXX has applied under
SC category for which the cut off marks as decided by CBSE are 59 marks (assumed). The
candidate XXXX has secured 60.2 marks, thereby he/she is eligible to apply under SC
category. This candidate XXXX also wants to apply under Sports category. To be eligible
Page 2 of 5
JAC 2015
under Sports Category, he/she falls under General Category (refer to point 1 above) for
which the cut off marks as decided by CBSE are 62 marks (assumed). Since, XXXX has only
60.2 marks which are less than 62 marks, so he/she is ineligible to apply under Sports
Category.
3. All the candidates declared eligible by CBSE for B.E./B.E. (Chemical) with MBA/B.Arch
counselling are eligible for registration to B.E./ B.E. (Chemical) with MBA & B.Arch.
courses for the session 2015-2016 under JAC-2015.
4. A candidate who gets a compartment in the 10+2 examination held in March/April 2015 will
not be eligible for admission under JAC-2015 even if he/she clears the same (by appearing in
the supplementary examination) before the reporting /counselling dates.
5. Aggregate marks percentage in 10+2 or equivalent examination shall be worked out as
suggested by the certificate awarding Board/University/Council. If the
Board/University/Council awards letter grades without providing the equivalent percentage
of marks on the grade sheet, the candidate, should obtain a certificate from the respective
Board/University/Council specifying equivalent percentage conversion formula and submit at
the time of reporting/counselling. In the absence of such a certificate, the decision of
JOINT ADMISSION COMMITTEE-2015 regarding his/her eligibility shall be final.
