Each program has its own pathway in the form of a national exam, central portal, followed by a step to the institute. Below is the breakdown and what you should do for each program.<\/p>\n<h3>1. B.Tech &amp; B.S. Programs: via JoSAA Counselling 2026<\/h3>\n<p>B.Tech and BS admissions at all IITs, including IIT Kanpur, are fully managed by the <strong>Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA)<\/strong>. You do not apply to IIT Kanpur separately at the undergraduate level.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Register for and appear in the <a href=\"https:\/\/motion.ac.in\/examinfo\/jee-main-exam\/\"><strong>JEE Main Exam<\/strong><\/a> conducted by NTA. Your JEE Main score determines whether you qualify for JEE Advanced.<\/li>\n<li>Score within the <strong>top 2,50,000 qualifiers<\/strong> in JEE Main to become eligible for JEE Advanced.<\/li>\n<li>Register separately for and clear JEE Advanced 2026 to get the All-India Rank (AIR).<\/li>\n<li>Go to the <strong>JoSAA portal<\/strong> with your JEE advanced credentials. Fill the preferences list, IIT Kanpur and your desired branch in priority order.<\/li>\n<li>Upon seat allotment, pay the <strong>Seat Acceptance Fee (SAF)<\/strong> online and upload mandatory documents (marksheets, category certificate, medical certificate) on the JoSAA dashboard.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Report physically <\/strong>at the IIT Kanpur campus at the allotted date (23rd July 2026) to do biometric verification, hostel allotment and semester registration.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>2. M.Tech &amp; M.Des Programs: via GATE \/ CEED + COAP<\/h3>\n<p>In M.Tech \/ M.Des, the process is conducted via two parallel streams \u2013 national exam and centralised offer portal.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pass GATE with a competitive score (in case of M.Tech) or CEED with competitive score (in case of M.Des).<\/li>\n<li>Tech candidates must compulsorily register on <strong>COAP (Common Offer Acceptance Portal)<\/strong>. This is where all IIT M.Tech offers are issued.<\/li>\n<li>At the same time, you also have to apply for the specialization of your M.Tech\/M.Des course via the <strong>IIT Kanpur PG Admission Portal<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Some departments have a shortlisting process based on GATE score alone. Others conduct a written test or departmental interview on campus for shortlisted candidates.<\/li>\n<li>Monitor COAP data release rounds.
