How to Register and Fill Choices for WB JECA 2026 Counselling?

The registration and choice-filling process runs on a single dashboard. Candidates should complete each step in the correct sequence before the window closes.

  1. Visit the official portal at wbjeeb.nic.in/jeca.
  2. Click on the link for JECA 2026 Counselling Registration.
  3. Log in using the JECA 2026 application number, password and security PIN.
  4. Complete the registration form and verify personal details.
  5. Pay the non-refundable registration fee of Rs 500 online.
  6. Fill and reorder college and course choices in order of preference.
  7. Lock the choices before the deadline and download the confirmation page.

Payment can be made through net banking, debit card, credit card or UPI. Candidates are advised to keep a printed copy of the locked choice list for future reference.

What Happens After Choice Filling?

Once the choice-filling window closes, WBJEEB will process seat allotment based on rank, category and locked preferences. Candidates who receive a seat must pay the seat acceptance fee within the notified deadline. Failure to accept the seat within the window will forfeit the allotment.

Allotted candidates will then need to complete document verification and provisional admission at the allotted institute. Physical reporting instructions will be issued along with the allotment result.

Why This Matters

WB JECA is the only state-level entrance route to MCA seats in West Bengal government and government-aided institutes. Locking a well-ranked preference list in Round 1 gives candidates the widest choice of colleges. Choices cannot be changed once locked.

Action Plan for Candidates

  1. Visit the official portal at wbjeeb.nic.in/jeca without delay.
  2. Keep the JECA 2026 application number, roll number and rank card ready.
  3. Arrange the Rs 500 registration fee through any online payment mode.
  4. Research participating institutes and MCA programmes before locking preferences.
  5. Complete registration, fill choices and lock them well before the deadline.
  6. Save the confirmation page and monitor the portal for the Round 1 seat allotment result.
Keep an Eye On

Watch the WBJEEB portal for the Round 1 seat allotment result and the seat acceptance fee window. Subsequent rounds and reporting schedules will follow the same portal.
