What is WBJEE 2024 Counselling Round 2 Upgradation?

The upgradation round in WBJEE 2024 counseling is a special part of the counseling process that helps students get a better seat in their preferred college. Upgradation means trying to get a better seat than the one candidates were initially allotted in the 1st round. If they are not fully satisfied with the seat they got in the first round of counseling, they can choose to participate in the upgrade round or round 2. This gives them a chance to move to a more preferred college or course if a seat becomes available.

WBJEE Counseling Upgradation Process

• Candidates who choose upgradation in the first round and want to join the college other than the one they were given must report to the institute during the second round. However, candidates who received their first choice in the WBJEE Counseling 2024 Round 1 are not eligible for upgradation. They can either accept their seat or cancel it.

• The Board will publish the number of seats that remain vacant after the first round of seat allocation. Once candidates are allocated seats in the second round, they must report to the Reporting Centres within the specified dates. Otherwise, their allocated seat might be canceled.
