The OJEE 2027 counselling process is a crucial step for candidates aiming to secure admission into professional undergraduate, postgraduate, and lateral entry programs such as B.Tech, B.Pharm, MBA, MCA, M.Tech, and B.Arch offered by participating institutes across Odisha. Counselling and seat allocation are managed centrally through the official OJEE web portal (ojee.nic.in), ensuring a transparent and merit-driven process.

Overview and Timeline

Step-by-Step Counselling Procedure

• Online Registration: After results are declared, qualified candidates register online at the official OJEE portal, providing personal and academic details along with valid entrance exam ranks (JEE Main, OJEE, NEET, GATE, GPAT, etc.).
• Admission Form & Choice Filling: Candidates fill out the choice-filling form, indicating their preferred colleges and courses in order of priority. Multiple choices can be selected based on individual preference and academic goals.
• Mock Seat Allotment: Periodic mock allocations are displayed to help candidates understand their standing and adjust their choices before final locking.
• Choice Locking: Candidates must lock their choices within the specified deadline using their password or OTP. Once locked, choices cannot be modified.
• Seat Allotment: Seats are allocated based on merit rank, category rules, choices filled, and seat availability across multiple rounds.
