REAP 2026 Eligibility Criteria

REAP 2026, the Rajasthan Engineering Admission Process, establishes clear eligibility criteria to qualify candidates for B.Tech and B.Arch admissions in participating Rajasthan institutions based on JEE Main scores, Class 12 marks, or diploma performance. Candidates must pass 10+2 or equivalent with Physics and Mathematics as compulsory subjects, plus one optional from Chemistry, Computer Science, Biology, or related fields, securing at least 45% aggregate marks (40% for SC/ST/OBC-NCL/SBC/PwD of Rajasthan). No age limit applies, but Rajasthan domicile preference governs state quota seats, alongside mandatory medical fitness certification.

Educational Qualifications Required for REAP 2026

• For B.Tech programs, candidates need to complete 10+2 from a recognized board like RBSE or CBSE.
• Candidates should have subjects in 10+2 with Physics and Mathematics mandatory, alongside subjects such as Chemistry, Computer Science, Electronics, Information Technology, Biology, Informatics Practices, Biotechnology, Agriculture, or Engineering Graphics.
• Diploma holders in Engineering/Technology (NCfE Level 4 or equivalent) qualify similarly with 45% marks (40% relaxed for reserved Rajasthan categories).
• Arch aspirants require 10+2 with Mathematics and 50% aggregate, or a 10+3 diploma with 50% marks, often needing valid NATA 2026 scores.
• Students appearing in their final exams also remain eligible but provisionally.

Minimum Marks Required for REAP 2026

• General category candidates secure admission eligibility with 45% aggregate in the qualifying exam for B.Tech, dropping to 40% for reserved categories from Rajasthan (SC/ST/Non-creamy layer OBC/SBC/PwD).
• Arch demands 50% marks without relaxation specifics noted, emphasizing Mathematics proficiency.
• These thresholds ensure academic readiness for engineering rigor, with JEE Main toppers prioritized in merit lists despite borderline marks.

Age and Nationality Criteria

• No upper or lower age limit restricts REAP 2026 participation, accommodating diverse applicants including repeaters and career-switchers.
• Indian nationality remains essential, with out-of-state candidates eligible for management quota but not state domicile benefits.
• This open policy aligns with national engineering admission trends, focusing on merit over demographics.

Domicile and Residency Provisions

Rajasthan domicile secures 85% state quota seats through categories:

• Category A for bona fide residents (candidate or parents)
• Category B for three consecutive years of study in Rajasthan schools (Classes 10-12)
• Category C for children of Rajasthan government employees, All India Services officers, statutory bodies, or defense personnel with three years' service.

Rajasthan-origin employees in central services qualify with service proof. Non-domicile candidates can access remaining seats via all-India merit.

Medical Fitness and Special Provisions

A Medical Fitness Certificate, issued by a Rajasthan Government Medical Officer on the prescribed format, verifies suitability for engineering studies, checking vision, hearing, and physical standards.

Reserved categories submit caste/income/PwD certificates during counseling for relaxations. Vocational diploma holders (NCrF Level 4) in allied sectors gain entry, broadening access beyond traditional 10+2 routes.

Application Verification Process

• Eligibility documents—Class 10/12 marksheets, JEE Main scorecard, domicile proof, category certificates, and medical fitness form—upload during online registration at reap2026.com or equivalent.
• Provisional admission for appearing students requires final marks submission before seat allotment.
• Disqualifications arise from mismatches, with counseling rounds enforcing scrutiny via RUHS or CEG portals.
