What is JAC Delhi Counselling?

JAC Delhi (Joint Admission Counselling) is a single-window system that manages admissions for major Delhi government engineering colleges. It reduces multiple applications and allocates seats based on rank and preferences.

How JAC Delhi Works

Your Category (GEN, OBC, SC, ST, EWS)
Your Region (Delhi / Outside Delhi)
Your Choice Order

Think of it like: You list preferences → system assigns best possible college based on rank.

Step-by-Step JAC Delhi Process

1. Registration

2. Choice Filling

Select colleges and branches in priority order.

Always fill maximum choices to improve your chances.

3. Choice Locking

Lock choices before deadline. If not, system auto-locks.

4. Seat Allotment

Seats are allocated in multiple rounds (Round 1 to Round 5).

5. Seat Acceptance

Option	Meaning
Freeze	Accept the allotted seat as final and do not participate in further rounds
Float	Accept the seat but remain eligible for a better college or branch in next rounds
Slide	Accept the seat but seek a better branch within the same institute

6. Seat Acceptance Fee (SAF)

Pay SAF (~₹95,000 – ₹1,12,000) to confirm seat. Not paying = seat cancellation + removal from further rounds.

7. Document Verification

Verify documents at reporting center or allotted institute.

8. Final Reporting

Report physically to the allotted college.
