Eligibility is set by JEE Advanced and the JoSAA marks rule. JEE Advanced 2026 asked for a place in the top 2,50,000 of JEE Main 2026, Class 12 first taken in 2025 or 2026 with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics, and at most two attempts (source: jeeadv.ac.in). JoSAA then asks for 75% in Class 12 (65% for SC, ST and PwD) or a place in your board's top 20 percentile. The rules for 2027 will be published on jeeadv.ac.in.
M.Tech needs a four-year bachelor's degree or a relevant master's degree with 60% (55% for SC, ST and PwD), and a valid GATE score for full-time regular seats. M.Sc Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics need a first-class bachelor's and a JAM score. The MBA needs 60% and a valid CAT score. The programme-wise table is on the IIT Jodhpur courses page.

|---|---|---|
| JEE Advanced | B.Tech, B.S. | 2026 exam on 17 May. 2027 dates not published |

JoSAA changes your category tag to GEN for seat allocation. For example, an invalid OBC-NCL, SC, ST or EWS certificate moves you to the general category, and an invalid PwD certificate removes the PwD tag.
In JoSAA 2026 Round 5, open gender-neutral closing ranks ran from 3755 for Computer Science and Engineering to 18643 for Engineering Chemistry. Rank tables by category and gender are on the cutoff page.
The split below is from the JoSAA 2026 seat matrix for all 750 seats. PwD seats are inside each category line.
| Category | Seats | Share of 750 |
|---|---|---|
| Open | 324 | 43.2% |
| OBC-NCL | 194 | 25.9% |
| SC | 109 | 14.5% |
| EWS | 72 | 9.6% |
| ST | 51 | 6.8% |
PwD seats total 28 (3.7%), and female-only seats total 150 (20%). Computer Science and Engineering shows how a branch splits. Its 72 gender-neutral seats are 28 open, 2 open PwD, 7 EWS, 18 OBC-NCL, 1 OBC-NCL PwD, 11 SC and 5 ST. Its 18 female-only seats add 8 open, 2 EWS, 5 OBC-NCL, 2 SC and 1 ST.
No B.Tech or B.S. seat is offered outside JoSAA. There is no management or NRI quota in the JoSAA seat matrix. OCI and PIO cardholders are treated as unreserved Indian nationals for fees.
M.Tech has one route that skips GATE: a B.Tech from a centrally funded technical institute with a CGPA of 8 or above. Part-time, external and sponsored candidates enter through the institute's written test or interview, after two years of work experience. MBA students can take an international dual degree in the second year with partner schools in the USA, as the School of Management and Entrepreneurship lists.
Tuition falls to ₹33,333 a semester for family income between ₹1 lakh and ₹5 lakh, and to nil below ₹1 lakh or for SC, ST and PwD students. Up to 25% of B.Tech students can receive a Merit-cum-Means scholarship, with family income up to ₹6 lakh. Keep your income certificate and latest tax return ready. The details are on the IIT Jodhpur scholarship page.

Answers to what readers ask most often.
For B.Tech and B.S. you qualify in JEE Advanced and take a seat through JoSAA, where IIT Jodhpur is institute code 108. M.Tech needs GATE with COAP, M.Sc needs IIT JAM, the MBA needs CAT, and PhD runs on a rolling advertisement. Data Sources: josaa.admissions.nic.in, iitj.ac.in admission pages.
Not for B.Tech or B.S., because JoSAA 2027 has not started and JEE Advanced 2027 dates are not published. PhD applications are open under a rolling advertisement with a 20 October date, and M.Tech opens after GATE 2027 in February. Data Sources: jeeadv.ac.in, gate2027.iitm.ac.in, iitj.ac.in PhD advertisement.
You need a JEE Advanced rank, and JoSAA asks for 75% in Class 12 (65% for SC, ST and PwD) or a place in your board's top 20 percentile, with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. JEE Advanced 2026 allowed candidates from the top 2,50,000 of JEE Main who first took Class 12 in 2025 or 2026. Data Sources: JoSAA 2026 business rules, jeeadv.ac.in.
No, every B.Tech and B.S. seat is allotted through JoSAA on a JEE Advanced rank. M.Tech has a GATE exemption for B.Tech graduates of centrally funded technical institutes with a CGPA of 8 or above. Data Sources: josaa.admissions.nic.in, iitj.ac.in M.Tech eligibility page.
