Counselling and seat allotment
OJEE counselling

The Odisha Joint Entrance Examination Committee (OJEE) allots the B.Tech seats through its web-based counselling (three online rounds) on the JEE (Main) rank (common rank list, CRL): Home State seats for candidates of Odisha with the state's reservation (SC, ST, SEBC, EWS; green card, PwD, ex-servicemen, women and State Government School sub-categories) and supernumerary tuition fee waiver (TFW) seats; 15% of the seats are All India seats on the JEE (Main) rank and 5% NRI seats (both go to the general pool when not filled). Seats still vacant after the JEE (Main) candidates go to the rank holders of the 2nd / Special OJEE (B.Tech) in the later rounds. Seats left after the counselling are filled by the institute (institute-level admission).

Closing rank is the JEE Main rank of the last candidate who got a seat in that category in that OJEE round. Your rank has to be the same as or smaller than the closing rank to have a chance. Each round lists only the seats allotted in that round, so later rounds can show fewer programmes.
