National Council For Hotel Management And Catering Technology (NCHMCT) Application/Admission Process

Admission to the B.Sc. in Hospitality and Hotel Administration (HHA) program, regulated by the National Council for Hotel Management and Catering Technology (NCHMCT), is a centralized process based on the NCHMCT JEE (Joint Entrance Examination).

As of May 2026, the examination has been conducted, results have been declared, and the counselling process is currently underway.

1. Admission Pathway

  • Entrance Exam: Admission is strictly based on your All India Rank (AIR) obtained in the NCHMCT JEE, which was held on April 25, 2026.

  • Centralized Counselling: There are no interviews or group discussions. You must participate in the web-based online counselling process hosted on the official NCHMCT portal to secure a seat in any of the participating Central, State, or private Institutes of Hotel Management (IHMs).

2. Current Counselling Schedule (2026)

If you have qualified for the exam, you must follow the active counselling schedule:

  • Registration & Choice Filling (Round 1): June 1 to June 4, 2026.

  • Seat Allotment (Round 1): June 6, 2026.
