Dear Student,

Unfortunately, being a resident of Odisha you are not eligible to apply or sit for the TS EAMCET exam. This is because as per the TS EAMCET 2025 eligibility criteria, only those candidates who are domicile of Telangana or Andhra Pradesh states can appear for the entrance exam. However, if you want to pursue undergraduate engineering degree, then you may apply for OJEE exam that is held exclusively for students in the state. Registration for OJEE 2025 is ongoing till March 20, 2025. 

We hope this information was useful to you. Good luck!
