National Institute of Technology, Andhra Pradesh admits B.Tech and other UG students through JoSAA on the JEE Main CRL rank. In JoSAA 2026 the most competitive program was Computer Science and Engineering, which closed at 22,225 (Other State quota, OPEN, gender-neutral, final round), and the last program to close was Bio Technology at 54,682. NITs keep a Home-State quota for students from the institute’s own state and an Other-State quota for everyone else — both are shown below.
Gender-neutral seats, JEE Main CRL rank. Round 1 is where each program opened; the final column is the last round in which it allotted a seat. Easiest-to-hardest order is the reverse of this table.
