NIT Goa cutoff — frequently asked questions

What was the Computer Science and Engineering cutoff at NIT Goa in 2024?
In 2024, Computer Science and Engineering (Bachelor of Technology) at NIT Goa closed at JEE Main rank 12,511 in the final JoSAA round, for Other State quota, Open category, gender-neutral seats. The opening rank that year was 7,914.
What rank do I need for NIT Goa?
It depends entirely on the branch. In 2024, the most competitive branch at NIT Goa was Computer Science and Engineering, closing at JEE Main rank 12,511, while Civil Engineering closed at 44,014 — so the realistic range across 5 branches was roughly 12,511 to 44,014 (Other State quota, Open category, gender-neutral). These are past results, not a guarantee for future years.
Which branch at NIT Goa is hardest to get into?
Based on 2024 JoSAA final-round closing ranks, Computer Science and Engineering is the most competitive branch at NIT Goa, closing at JEE Main rank 12,511 for Open category, gender-neutral seats under Other State quota.
Has NIT Goa Computer Science and Engineering become harder to get into?
Comparing JoSAA final-round closing ranks, Computer Science and Engineering at NIT Goa went from rank 8,994 in 2016 to 12,511 in 2024. A lower closing rank means tougher competition, so it has become about 39% less competitive over that period, for Open category gender-neutral seats.
What is the category-wise cutoff for Computer Science and Engineering at NIT Goa?
For Computer Science and Engineering at NIT Goa in 2024 (Other State quota, gender-neutral seats), the JoSAA final-round closing ranks by category were: OPEN 12,511, EWS 1,929, OBC-NCL 4,746, SC 2,782, ST 626. Note these are not directly comparable: the Open figure is a Common Rank List rank, while EWS, OBC-NCL, SC and ST figures are ranks within each category's own list, so a smaller reserved-category number does not mean that category was harder to get into.

About this data

Ranks are final-round JoSAA seat-allotment opening and closing ranks, sourced from the official JoSAA Opening & Closing Rank tables. IIT ranks are JEE Advanced ranks; NIT, IIIT and GFTI ranks are JEE Main ranks.

Data currently runs through 2024. Years before 2018 predate the female-supernumerary split, so those figures reflect a single combined pool rather than a separate gender-neutral one.

These are historical results, not predictions. Cutoffs shift every year with paper difficulty, seat matrix and applicant numbers — always confirm against JoSAA or CSAB before making an admission decision.
