How do I apply for B.Tech admission at IIT Bhubaneswar for 2026-27?

Upon seat allocation, candidates report physically at IIT Bhubaneswar with required documents for verification and fee payment.

Eligibility for B.Tech admission at IIT Bhubaneswar follows the standard JEE Advanced / JoSAA framework. Candidates must have passed class 12 (or equivalent) with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as compulsory subjects. General, OBC, and EWS candidates need 75% aggregate in class 12 (or rank in the top 20 percentile of their board examination), while SC, ST, and PwD candidates need 65% aggregate (or top 20 percentile). Candidates must qualify JEE Main in the current year, then appear for JEE Advanced, and must feature in the JEE Advanced All India Common Rank List (or category-specific list) to be eligible for JoSAA counselling. Age limits and the maximum number of attempts for JEE Advanced also apply per JAB rules.
