WBJEE 2026 Phase 1 Decentralised Counselling Registration Commences

The West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB) has officially initiated the registration process for the Phase 1 decentralised counselling for WBJEE 2026. This phase is specifically designed to facilitate admissions into vacant seats across participating institutions. Candidates seeking admission through this process are required to complete their registration exclusively through the official website at wbjeeb.co.in.

It is important for applicants to note that the registration and choice-filling window is time-bound. The board has set a deadline of September 8, 2026, at 11:59 PM for all submissions. Applications or choices submitted after this cutoff will not be considered. For those who have previously participated in the centralised counselling rounds, the process is streamlined; these candidates are not required to register again and may proceed directly to the login portal to fill their preferences.

Key Details and Seat Allocation Process

Before initiating the registration, the board strongly advises candidates to review the official seat matrix. This document provides a comprehensive breakdown of vacant seats, categorised by both college and specific course offerings. Accessing this information is essential for students to make informed decisions regarding their preferred choices during the application process.

The seat allocation for this phase will be conducted in two distinct rounds. The first allocation list is scheduled to be released on September 10, 2026, followed by the second list on September 13, 2026. The final selection of candidates will be determined by a combination of factors, including the candidate's merit rank, the preferences submitted during the choice-filling stage, and the availability of seats in the respective institutions. Once a seat is allotted, candidates are required to complete the necessary admission formalities within the specified timeframe to secure their placement.
