Candidates applying under the NRI Quota should check the eligibility rules and document requirements on the official WBMCC portal. NRI documents can take time to arrange, so it is wise to check them before choice filling begins.

Category-Wise Seat Details

The matrix gives the seat split for categories such as UR, UR PwD, EWS, EWS PwD, OBC and OBC PwD, along with other reserved categories. Many state government colleges have only a small number of seats left in Round 3.

Do not judge your chances from the total seats alone. Check the exact seat count for your category, quota and course. A college may show vacancies, but those seats may not be open to every candidate. The official PDF is the right source for this check.
