Questions students ask
Which colleges can I get with JEE Main rank 35,000 in the OBC-NCL category?
Going by JoSAA 2026 final round (round 5) closing ranks, 26 colleges had at least one programme that closed at or after rank 35,000 for OBC-NCL candidates in All India and Other State seats. The most competitive of them were North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong (Information Technology, closed at 35,096), National Institute of Electronics and Information Technology, Kohima (CSE (AI and ML), closed at 35,586) and Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University, Katra (Electronics and Communication Engineering, closed at 35,678).
Can I get Computer Science (CSE) with JEE Main rank 35,000?
Not in last year's final round: the nearest was Gurukula Kangri Vishwavidyalaya, Haridwar, where CSE closed at 33,526. Home-state quota and female-only seats can close later, so check those too.
Which NITs can I get with JEE Main rank 35,000?
None in other-state seats in last year's final round. Your own state's NIT reserves half its seats for home-state candidates, and those often close later, so check its cutoff page.
Will these cutoffs be the same this year?
No list can promise a seat: closing ranks move a little every year with the number of candidates and seats. These are JoSAA 2026 final round (round 5) closing ranks; female candidates also had 1 more programme open through female-only seats. Use them to shortlist, and fill your choices widely during counselling.
