The Odisha Joint Entrance Examination (OJEE) Cell has alerted candidates involved in the OJEE Counselling 2026 process about discrepancies found in their submitted documents. The examination authority emphasised the necessity for immediate correction of application details, indicating that neglecting this advice could result in the cancellation of allocated seats during the admission procedure.

Eligibility Concerns for Candidates

The notice specifically targets students applying for various degree programmes, including BTech, BArch, BPharm, BCAT, and Integrated MSc. Many of these applicants have been found to have CBSE Class 12 mark sheets indicating an ‘RT’ (Repeat Theory) status in one or more qualifying subjects, which affects their eligibility.

According to the notification, candidates with an outstanding ‘RT’ in the required subjects do not fulfil the minimum eligibility criteria necessary for admission. The importance of adherence to these guidelines was underscored, as failure to comply will lead to immediate repercussions.

As a result, candidates are strongly advised to check their marksheets and verify their application documents without delay. It is essential for them to ensure that all the information they have submitted during the counselling process is accurate to avoid future complications.

Action Required by Candidates

The OJEE Cell has outlined specific actions that candidates must take regarding their documents. If any applicant discovers that they have received an ‘RT’ rating and their documents were erroneously marked as “Verified” by a verifying officer, they are required to withdraw from the counselling system promptly.

For those unable to execute this withdrawal online, the OJEE office must be formally notified in writing at the earliest. This direct communication is crucial to ensure that the individuals’ statuses are rectified before the conclusion of the counselling process.

In light of the recent findings by the OJEE Cell, it has been reiterated that document verification plays a pivotal role in determining candidates’ eligibility. The records uploaded by the applicants are thoroughly examined during this stage, underscoring the importance of accurate submissions.

Consequences of Non-Compliance

Candidates are encouraged to take this situation seriously and address any discrepancies as soon as possible to mitigate the risk of losing their allotted seats. Further updates and information regarding the OJEE Counselling 2026 will be provided by the OJEE Cell, assisting candidates in navigating the remaining steps of the admission process.

As the deadline for corrections approaches, all participants are advised to stay vigilant and proactive. This last phase of the counselling process is critical for securing admission to their chosen courses, and adherence to the requirements outlined in the official notice is essential for success.
