How to Fill Pharmacy College Preferences in JEPBN 2026

Choice filling is the most critical step in JEPBN 2026 counselling. Your pharmacy college and course preferences — combined with your JEPBN rank and category — directly determine your seat allotment. Fill and arrange your choices with care.

  1. Log in to the counselling portal at wbjeeb.nic.in/jepbn after completing registration and fee payment.
  2. Click "Choice Filling" on your dashboard to open the preference entry page.
  3. Browse the list of participating pharmacy colleges — the portal displays all WBJEEB-approved B.Pharma colleges in West Bengal with available seats broken down by category.
  4. Add colleges and courses to your preference list — click each college-course combination you wish to include.
  5. Arrange your preferences in priority order — place your most preferred college-course at Rank 1 and least preferred at the bottom of your list.
  6. Save your choices regularly — use the "Save" button to protect your progress. You can edit and re-save multiple times during the choice filling window.
  7. Lock your choices before the deadline — click "Lock Choices" to finalize your preferences. Once locked, no changes are permitted. Choices that are saved but not locked are not considered for allotment.
Choice Filling Strategy Why It Matters
Add as many colleges as possible More choices increase your chances of a seat across all rounds
Put your top-preference college at Rank 1 The allotment system assigns the highest-ranked choice your JEPBN rank qualifies for
Include colleges from both general and reserved seats Covers every seat type you are eligible for under your category
Lock choices well before the deadline Saved-but-unlocked choices are not processed for seat allotment

JEPBN 2026 Seat Allotment Process

After choice locking closes, WBJEEB runs the seat allotment algorithm based on each student’s JEPBN rank, category, and locked preferences. Here is what happens once your choices are locked.

  1. Round 1 seat allotment result is published on wbjeeb.nic.in/jepbn — log in to check your allotted college and course.
  2. Accept or reject your allotted seat within the given deadline. If you accept, pay the seat acceptance fee online to confirm your booking.
  3. Report to your allotted college with all original documents for physical verification within the reporting deadline specified by WBJEEB.
  4. Float or freeze for Round 2 — if you received a seat in Round 1 but want a better option, select "Float" to stay in the pool for higher preferences while retaining your Round 1 seat as a fallback. Select "Freeze" to confirm your current seat and exit further rounds.
  5. Mop-Up Round fills remaining vacant seats — only students who were not allotted a seat or did not accept a seat in earlier rounds are eligible to participate in the Mop-Up Round.

Students who do not report to their allotted college within the deadline forfeit their seat and may lose eligibility for further allotment rounds.
