How to Audit College Claims: Verifying AICTE Extension of Approval, NBA, and NAAC Reports
Key Highlights

In WBJEE centralized counseling, your choice sheet is strictly processed sequentially from Option 1 downwards. If you are allotted Option 4 in Round 1, choices 5 and lower are permanently eliminated for subsequent rounds. Always order colleges by true preference rather than guessing cutoff ranks.

1. Overview of the Centralized Allocation Process

The West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board conducts centralized online counseling for engineering, technology, and pharmacy courses across state universities, government colleges, and self-financed institutions.

Understanding the TFW (Tuition Fee Waiver) Advantage

Up to 5% supernumerary seats are allocated in each branch under the AICTE TFW scheme where the 100% tuition fee is waived for West Bengal domiciled candidates whose annual family income is below ₹2.5 Lakhs. Always place verified TFW codes above general seats of the same institute.
