📅 Key Dates You Must Know

Here’s a breakdown of the important schedule for Session 1 of JEE Main 2026:

• Registration Window Opened: Late October/early November 2025. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
• Last Date to Submit Application: 27 November 2025 (up to ~9 pm). :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

• Exam Dates for Session 1: 21 January – 30 January 2026 (tentative) :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

⏳ The correction window is just **two days** — missing it means your form errors remain locked in.

✅ What You Can Edit in the Form

During the correction window, NTA permits edits to several key fields. It’s essential you check each of these carefully.

• Candidate’s Name / Father’s Name / Mother’s Name – (you may be able to change one).
• Date of Birth, Gender
• Category or Sub-category (SC/ST/OBC-NCL/PwD/EWS) – with supporting certificate.
• State Code of Eligibility & Qualification Details (Class 10 / 12)
• Medium of Examination & Exam City Preference
• Course / Paper Selection (e.g., adding another paper)

✔ You must **log in**, check each field, make edits **before the deadline**, and hit Submit. No further changes after the window closes.

❌ What You Cannot Edit — And Why It Matters

Some fields are locked and cannot be changed even in the correction window. Be sure these were correct at the time of original submission, otherwise you may face issues later.

• Mobile Number
• Email Address
• Permanent / Present Address
• Uploaded Photograph (in many cases)

⚠️ Mistakes in these fields can lead to wasted time, mis-communication, and even issues on the admit card or verification day.

🛠 How to Make Corrections: Step-by-Step

Follow this checklist to ensure you complete the correction smoothly:

1. Visit the official website: jeemain.nta.nic.in :contentReference[oaicite:17]{index=17}
2. Login using your Application Number & Password / Date of Birth.
3. Click on the link: “Correction in Application Form 2026 – Session 1”.
4. Read all instructions carefully, including fee implications for certain edits.
5. Edit the permitted fields only, verify carefully.
6. If your edits involve fee change (e.g., adding paper, category upgrade), pay the required additional fee.
7. Submit the form, download & save the confirmation page / updated slip for your records.
8. Take a print-out of your corrected form and keep it safe. Treat it like your exam document.

✅ Do all of this **before** 11:50 pm on 2 December 2025. After that, no edits will be allowed.

🎯 Why This Correction Window Should Be Your Priority

Many aspirants overlook this window, focusing only on studies. But here’s why you must treat this like a **mini-exam** of your registration quality:

• Incorrect personal or category details can lead to invalid admit cards or application rejection.
• Wrong exam city choice may cause unnecessary travel or centre issues.
• Lack of correction may lead to mismatch in document verification, costing your seat or causing delays.
• It’s a one-time window — once it’s closed, you cannot go back.

In short: Your application accuracy = your eligibility strength. Clarify it now.

✔ BACE’s Exclusive Checklist for Correction Success

Here’s a tailored checklist we give to our students at BACE IIT JEE, so you can perform this correction like a pro:

• Keep ready: Application Number & Password, scanned certificates of category / PwD if applicable.
• Check spelling of your name and your parents’ names — it must match your Class 12 / Aadhaar documents.
• Ensure that your Date of Birth is correctly entered — mismatches lead to eligibility issues.
• Double-check the category or sub-category selection: wrong category = huge disadvantage.
• Select the exam city you can reach easily. Choose backup options in nearby cities if needed.
• Confirm the paper(s) you opted for: Paper 1 (B.E/B.Tech), Paper 2A (B.Arch), Paper 2B (B.Planning) — correct selection matters. :contentReference[oaicite:21]{index=21}
• After editing, download the updated confirmation slip and screenshot it for safety.
• Do not wait till the last minute: server load + technical glitches = risk. Login early in the day when window opens.
