The Rajasthan Engineering Admission Process (REAP) is governed by specific eligibility norms set by the Centre for Electronic Governance (CEG). Before filling out the application form, candidates must ensure they meet the **REAP 2026 Eligibility Criteria** regarding academic qualification, age, and domicile.
Admission to B.E./B.Tech and B.Arch courses in Rajasthan is strictly merit-based. While there is no separate state-level entrance exam, the eligibility criteria act as the primary filter for candidates. Whether you are applying through JEE Main rank, Class 12th percentile, or Diploma marks, meeting these standards is mandatory.
Candidates belonging to reserved categories should also check the Reservation Policy for specific relaxations in marks and age.
