Applicants should note that they have to apply for admission by sending an Application Form for Admission (henceforth called Admission Form) only to the Organizing Institute (IIT Kharagpur).

An applicant can apply to one or more academic programs corresponding to the Test Paper(s) in which he/she has qualified, subject to fulfillment of the minimum educational qualifications and the eligibility requirements of the Admitting Institute(s). For the academic session 2009-2010, the Admission Procedure enumerated below shall be followed for admissions to all the M.Sc./ M.Sc.-Ph.D. Dual degree and other post-B.Sc. programs covered under JAM-2009.

(i) After JAM-2009 results are announced, a qualified candidate will have to apply on the prescribed Admission Form to the Organizing Institute (IIT Kharagpur) only, irrespective of the IIT(s) where he/she desires to seek admission. The Admission Form(s) will be sent along with the Rank Card to the qualified candidates and can also be downloaded from the website of the Organizing Institute.

(ii) Irrespective of whether a candidate has qualified in one or two Test Papers, he/she needs to send only one duly completed Admission Form listing all the M.Sc./ M.Sc.-Ph.D. Dual degree/ post-B.Sc. programs (along with the order of preferences) to which the admission is sought by him/her.

(iii) The duly completed Admission Form along with required enclosures must be sent by the applicant to the Organizing Chairman, JAM-2009, IIT Kharagpur, Kharagpur - 721 302, along with an Account Payee Demand Draft of Rs. 300/- (Rupees Three Hundred only), drawn in favour of "Organizing JAM-2009", payable at Canara Bank, Kharagpur (Branch Code: 0190), as a non-refundable processing fee. It must be noted that the Admission Form either found incomplete in any respect or if not accompanied by a Demand Draft of Rs. 300/- shall be rejected and the candidate shall not be considered for admission irrespective of his/her eligibility for any program(s) for which Admission Form has been submitted by him/ her to the Organizing Institute. Also, a candidate will be considered for admission only to the program(s), given in his/her Admission Form. The last date for receiving the completed Admission Form at the Organizing Institute (IIT Kharagpur) is June 9, 2009.

(iv) Taking into consideration the order of preferences as given in the Admission Form and corresponding rank(s) in the merit list, in respect of only such candidates who are found eligible for admission by respective IITs, the First Admission List for each M.Sc./M.Sc.-Ph.D.Dual degree/ post-B.Sc. program under JAM-2009 will be prepared by the Organizing Institute and will be declared at 17:00 hours on June 20, 2009.

(v) After the declaration of the First Admission List, admission offers will be sent by the respective Admitting Institute(s) to the candidates concerned on June 22, 2009. Last date for conveying the acceptance of the offer by the candidates to the Organizing Chairman, JAM-2009, IIT Kharagpur, is July 6, 2009. Along with the acceptance of offer, these candidates will also have to send an advance fee of Rs. 5000/- to the Organizing Chairman through a demand draft in favour of the "Organizing JAM-2009", payable at Canara Bank, Kharagpur (Branch Code: 0190). This amount will be transferred to the Admitting Institute and the same will be adjusted at the time of registration.

(vi) In case some seats remain vacant (after the First Admission List), the Organizing Institute will prepare a Second Admission List. This list will be declared by the Organizing Institute at 09:00 hours on July 8, 2009. The admission offers based on the second admission list, if any, will be sent by the Admitting Institute(s) to the candidates concerned on July 9, 2009. The candidates being offered admission through the second list must report directly to the admitting institute on the date of semester registration. With that the admission process based on JAM-2009 will come to an end.

(vii) If a candidate has been allotted a seat through first admission list and if he/she accepts the offer of admission, his/her lower preferences, if any, will be automatically cancelled but he/she shall remain on the waiting list for all of his/her higher preferences, if any, in the next round of admissions. Those eligible candidates, who are not allotted any seat in the First Admission List, shall remain on the waiting list in the next round of admissions. Candidates who do not want to be considered for higher preference program(s) in the next round of admissions, will have to inform about the same in the prescribed form at the time of acceptance of the admission offer. However, once a candidate fails to accept an admission offer, he/she will not be considered for any of his/her choices thereafter and hence, in the next round of admissions, he/she will not be in the waiting list of any program.

(viii) It is important to note that there will not be any waiting list for admission after the second and final admission list.

NOTE:

(a) Verification of minimum educational qualifications and the eligibility criteria for admission is the prerogative and sole responsibility of the Admitting Institute(s) only and the Organizing Institute will not respond to any queries in this regard.

(b) The offer of admission to a candidate will be provisional, subject to the fulfillment of all the requirements by the dates specified.

(c) Candidates should note that being in the merit list of any Test Paper neither guarantees nor provides any automatic entitlement for admission. Admissions shall be made in order of merit and depending on the number of seats available at the Admitting Institute(s).

Candidates may apply for JAM-2009 through one of the two different procedures, namely "offline" and "online".
