The West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB) will conduct the seat allotment process for WBJEE 2024 based on the ranks secured by candidates in the entrance exam. The seat allotment will be conducted through multiple rounds of online counselling. In the first round, candidates have to register, pay fees, fill choices and lock their choices of college/courses. Seat allotment will be done based on rank, choices filled, reservation criteria and availability of seats.
Candidates who get a seat allotted in the first round will have to report online, pay seat acceptance fees and undergo document verification. Candidates who fail to get a seat can participate in the subsequent rounds. New seats that were not allotted in the previous rounds will be made available. Candidates can modify/re-order their choices, delete unwanted choices and add new choices before each round of allotment. This will continue till all the seats are filled up. Seat matrix for each college/branch along with the opening and closing ranks will be made available before counselling to help candidates make informed choices. The WBJEEB will release a detailed counselling schedule once the entrance exam result is declared. Adherence to all deadlines is critical for candidates seeking admission through WBJEE.
