Mizoram University

What are the cutoffs for Mizoram University in 2026?

For 2026, B.Tech admission to Mizoram University, Aizawl is driven entirely by your JEE Main rank, processed through JoSAA and CSAB counselling, while B.Arch admission uses the JEE Main Paper 2 (B.Arch) rank. In the 2025 cycle, the headline General-category closing ranks were 75,540 for Computer Engineering and 109,020 for Civil Engineering (the easiest General branch to enter), with B.Arch closing at 1,258. For reserved categories in 2025, ST candidates closed as high as 6,075 (ECE) and SC candidates around 12,707 (Civil), making Mizoram University one of the more accessible JoSAA institutes for ST and SC aspirants. The 2026 Round 1 figures opened in a similar band, with Civil Engineering closing near 82,785 and Electrical near 79,519 in the General category.

Mizoram University is a central, government university and a JoSAA participating institute offering five B.Tech branches (Computer, Information Technology, Electronics and Communication, Electrical and Civil Engineering) plus B.Arch, across a total intake of about 96 B.Tech seats. The total B.Tech programme fee is roughly Rs 1,20,000, which keeps it attractive for mid-rank JEE Main scorers seeking a low-cost central-university degree.

Year-Wise Cutoff Trends (2024-2026)

The table below tracks how Mizoram University's JEE Main closing ranks have moved across 2024, 2025 and 2026 so you can judge whether your rank is safe. It answers the question "is my JEE Main rank good enough for Mizoram University this year?" by showing General-category final closing ranks per branch, plus the 2025 reserved-category (SC/ST) closing ranks where official JoSAA data exists. Read each row as the last (worst) rank admitted for that branch and category; a rank better (numerically lower) than the figure shown gives you a realistic chance. The 2026 column reflects early Round 1 allotment, which always tightens (rank numbers rise) in later rounds.

The clear takeaway is that General-category cutoffs have loosened slightly year on year: Computer Engineering moved from a 2024 close of 67,924 to 75,540 in 2025, meaning a marginally higher rank was still admitted in 2025. Civil Engineering remains the safety branch, absorbing General ranks beyond 1,00,000. Reserved-category seats stay strikingly open, with ST closing ranks under 6,100 and SC ranks under 13,000 in 2025, so ST and SC aspirants with four-figure to low five-figure ranks are well placed for 2026.

Course-Wise Cutoff at Mizoram University

This table breaks the 2025 final-round (Round 6) JEE Main closing ranks down branch by branch for the General category, alongside the corresponding Round 1 opening figure, so you can see the full admission window for each programme. It answers "which Mizoram University branch matches my rank?" Branches are ordered from the most competitive (Computer Engineering) to the most accessible (Civil Engineering). The Round 1 figure is the tightest cutoff of the year and the Round 6 figure is the most relaxed, so your target rank should ideally beat the Round 1 number for a confident allotment.

The data shows Computer Engineering is consistently the toughest seat to win at Mizoram University, opening at 60,031 and closing at 75,540 in 2025, while Civil Engineering offers the widest window, stretching from 76,781 all the way to 109,020. B.Arch is a special case: because JEE Main Paper 2 has a far smaller candidate pool, its closing rank of 1,258 in 2025 looks low but is genuinely competitive within the B.Arch cohort. Across every branch, ranks drift up by roughly 15,000-30,000 between Round 1 and the final round, so later JoSAA rounds reward patient candidates.

Cutoff Trend Analysis

Mizoram University's JEE Main cutoffs are broadly easing rather than tightening, which is good news for 2026 aspirants. In the General category, Computer Engineering's final closing rank rose from 67,924 in 2024 to 75,540 in 2025, and 2026 Round 1 figures for ECE (72,314), Electrical (79,519) and Civil (82,785) sit in the same relaxed band, signalling no sudden surge in demand. This drift reflects the university's Aizawl location and its position as a regional central university rather than a high-pull metro institute, which keeps competition moderate compared with NITs and IIITs.

Realistically, a General-category candidate needs a JEE Main rank under about 75,000 to be confident of any branch and under 60,000 to comfortably secure Computer Engineering; ranks up to 1,09,000 can still land Civil Engineering in later rounds. SC candidates should aim for a rank under roughly 13,000 and ST candidates under about 6,000 to cover all branches, given 2025 closing ranks of 12,707 (SC, Civil) and 6,075 (ST, ECE). Because cutoffs loosen substantially from Round 1 to Round 6, holding your seat and floating through the later JoSAA and CSAB rounds is the smartest strategy for borderline ranks.
