Dear student,

Josaa - joint seat allocation authority, is responsible for giving admission in undergraduate courses in IIT NIT, IIIT, gfti by counselling.
Now some people thought that only the jee mains qualified students can participate in josaa counseling, which is completely wrong.

In jossa, anyone who has given Jee mains can participate in josaa counselling. Even if you have not qualified the jee mains. The thing that matters is that you must have given jee mains 2020, to participate in josaa counseling 2020.
So, get yourself registered in josaa counselling and try your luck.
Also you can check out our college predictor tool to get an appropriate idea of the colleges that you can get on the basis of your JEE mains rank :-

It is essential for the candidates to qualify JEE Main 2020 or JEE Advanced 2020 to participate in JoSAA 2020. Through JoSAA counselling, candidates get admission in NITs, IIITs, CFTIs on the basis of jee Main Marks and to IITs on the basis of Jee Advanced score. So if you haven't qualified Jee Main, that means you haven't met the minimum qualifying marks of jee Main so you will not be awarded any seat in any NITs, IIITs or in CFTIs. So you can't participate in JoSAA counselling 2020 as the minimum eligibility criteria says that the candidate must has qualified Jee Mains 2020.
