The Joint Admission Board of JEE (Advanced) in the first JAB meeting held on December
14, 2021, deliberated on the numerous representations received regarding the eligibility
criteria and was of the view that the exceptional circumstances and hardships faced
due to the COVID-19 pandemic required some relaxation to be given. These relaxations
are special one-time measures only. The following exceptions to the general eligibility
criteria were accordingly deliberated and
approved. One-time measure for those who first appeared in class 12th (or equivalent)
examination in 2020/2021 AND successfully registered for JEE (Advanced) 2021
but did NOT appear
Candidates who appeared in class 12th (or equivalent) examination for the first
time in 2020 OR 2021 AND successfully registered for JEE (Advanced) 2021 but
were absent in BOTH the papers, i.e., Paper 1 and Paper 2, of JEE (Advanced)
2021, are eligible to directly appear for JEE (Advanced) 2022 and do not need
to fulfill Criteria. However, they must successfully register for the JEE
(Advanced) 2022 in the online registration portal and pay the registration fee.
Further, these candidates would be considered in addition to and not as part
of the total number of candidates who would qualify from JEE (Main) 2022 for
appearing in JEE (Advanced) 2022.
This is a one-time measure valid only for JEE (Advanced) 2022 due to the
ongoing pandemic.
These candidates must confirm their eligibility for appearing in JEE (Advanced)
2022 by visiting the official website (
https://jeeadv.ac.in) and filling in the
requisite information during registration. This one-time measure is NOT
applicable to candidates who appeared for their class 12th exam for the first
time before 2020.
One-time measure for those who first appeared in class 12th in 2020
As a one-time special measure due to the ongoing pandemic, candidates who
appeared in class 12th (or equivalent) examination in 2020 for the first
time are also eligible to appear for JEE (Advanced) 2022 PROVIDED they
satisfy the following two criteria simultaneously: (i) The candidate
should have appeared ONLY ONCE for JEE (Advanced), either in the year
2020 or 2021; OR, have NOT at all appeared in any paper in both JEE
(Advanced) 2020 and JEE (Advanced) 2021. (ii) These candidate(s) should
appear/should have appeared in JEE (Main) 2022 and meet the cut-off
score of the top 2,50,000 successful candidates (including all categories)
for qualifying for JEE (Advanced) 2022 in their respective category.
This one-time measure is applicable to ONLY those candidates for whom
the appearance in JEE (Advanced) 2022 will be their first or second
attempt and is NOT applicable to candidates who appeared for their class 12th
exam for the first time before 2020. No candidate will be allowed to appear
in JEE (Advanced) more than two times. Further, these candidates would be
considered in addition to and not as part of the total number of candidates
who would qualify from JEE (Main) 2022 for appearing in JEE (Advanced) 2022.
Criteria 5 would be applicable to these candidate(s).
This is a one-time measure valid only for JEE (Advanced) 2022.
* By appearance in Class XII (or equivalent) examination, it is meant that
the board concerned declared the result for that year irrespective of
whether or not the examination was conducted. It will be considered as an
appearance even if the result of a particular candidate got withheld.
These candidates must confirm their eligibility for appearing in JEE
(Advanced) 2022 by visiting the official website (https://jeeadv.ac.in) and filling
in the requisite information during the registration.
