CSAB Special Rounds To Be Conducted Soon for JEE Main 2022

CSAB or Central Seat Allocation Board conducts special counselling rounds for admissions to IIITs, NITs and GFTIs after the JoSAA counselling. In other words, the CSAB coordinates admissions to various undergraduate degree programs of engineering, technology, and architecture in NITs, IIEST, IIITs and CFTIs (called as, the NIT+ system) based on Joint Entrance Examination – Main (JEE- Main) rank.

Important Things to Note About JEE Main Counselling and CSAB 2022

In 2022, JoSAA will jointly admit candidates for the first year of Engineering/Technology and Architecture/Planning Programs of IITs and NIT+ system (list displayed on the website: https://josaa.nic.in) for the academic session 2022-23 via an online portal (https://josaa.nic.in).
There will be six rounds of JoSAA counselling. Upon completion of JoSAA-2022 counselling, if any seats remain vacant in NIT+ system (excluding seats of IITs), two special rounds, called CSAB-Special Rounds, will be conducted by the CSAB-2022 through its own online portal (https://csab.nic.in).
In addition, CSAB will also conduct a separate CSAB-Supernumerary round through its online portal (https://csab.nic.in) for admission to supernumerary seats for Union Territories of Andaman & Nicobar, Lakshadweep, Daman & Diu, and Dadra & Nagar Haveli in selected NITs.
Further, CSAB-NEUT rounds will be conducted by CSAB (https://csab.nic.in) to allocate seats under the scheme of “Reservation of seats in Degree Level Technical Courses for States / UTs lacking such facilities in the AICTE-approved institutions” to candidates of North-Eastern states and Union Territories.
