JEE Advanced 2025: Good News for Students
The central government has announced that students will now be allowed to appear for the JEE Advanced exam for up to three consecutive years, instead of just two. This change allows students who passed intermediate in 2022-23 to sit for the exam. IIT Kanpur, which will conduct JEE Advanced 2025, specified that only candidates born on or after October 1, 2000, are eligible, with a five-year relaxation for SC, ST, and disabled candidates. The exam date is yet to be announced but is expected in May 2025.
Olympiad Students to Get Direct Admission
Students who participate in international Olympiads will get direct admission to IIT Kanpur for BTech and Bachelor of Science programs, with seats reserved for top scorers in subjects like Computer Science, Chemistry, Biology, and more. Applications will be accepted in the first week of March, with these admissions completed before JOSAA counseling. Details about whether these seats will be additional or drawn from existing quotas are still pending.
