Mumbai : In a key development for students seeking admission to First Year Junior College (FYJC) in Maharashtra, the School Education and Sports Department has announced a revision in the admission schedule. The release of the general merit list, initially scheduled for June 8, has now been postponed to June 11, 2025. The change has been made to ensure smoother processing and greater accuracy in the centralised admission system.
This year, over 10.85 lakh students across the state are participating in the FYJC online admission process, which offers more than 20.43 lakh seats in junior colleges across Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Nashik, Aurangabad, Amravati, and other regions. The online process is being carried out through the official portal 11thadmission.org.in, which students must monitor closely for regular updates and instructions.
The general merit list is a crucial part of the admission process, as it will determine each student’s eligibility for the first round of college allotments based on their preferences and SSC scores. Students have been instructed to double-check their application details, document uploads, and preference order before the final allotment rounds begin. Any discrepancies could affect their admission chances.
Education department officials have stated that the delay is intended to give adequate time for data validation and ensure that errors in mark entries, reservation categories, or school-wise information are corrected. It will also benefit students who submitted applications closer to the deadline and needed time to complete document verification.
The revised schedule is expected to provide transparency and fairness to all applicants and streamline the overall process. Once the general merit list is released on June 11, students will be able to view their standing and prepare for the first round of allotments that will follow shortly.
Parents and students are advised to keep all necessary documents ready, stay updated through the official website, and avoid falling for misinformation or fake admission offers. With lakhs of students competing for a place in top colleges, timely action and vigilance will be key in the days ahead.
