Questions students ask

Which colleges can I get with JEE Main rank 6,000 in the ST category?

Going by JoSAA 2026 final round (round 5) closing ranks, 48 colleges had at least one programme that closed at or after rank 6,000 for ST candidates in All India and Other State seats. The most competitive of them were North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong (Electronics and Communication Engineering, closed at 6,003), Indian Institute of Information Technology Senapati, Manipur (Electronics and Communication Engineering with specialization in VLSI and Embedded Systems, closed at 6,018) and Indian Institute of Information Technology Bhagalpur (Electronics and Communication Engineering, closed at 6,026).

Can I get Computer Science (CSE) with JEE Main rank 6,000?

Yes, at 12 colleges last year, including Indian Institute of Information Technology Senapati, Manipur (closed at 6,084), Birla Institute of Technology, Patna Campus (closed at 7,038) and Institute of Engineering and Technology, Dr. Harisingh Gour Vishwavidyalaya, Sagar (closed at 7,853).

Which NITs can I get with JEE Main rank 6,000?

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.
