Maharashtra FE 2026 Admission: Eligibility
Admission in First Year Engineering through CAP rounds is conducted for students who have appeared in and passed Maharashtra HSC Class 12th board exam or equivalent including ISC and CBSE Class 12th board exams.
Besides clearing the 12th exam, the students participating in Maharashtra Engineering (FE) Counselling should also have passed JEE Main 2026 or MHT CET 2026 – the two engineering entrance exams conducted by the respective authorities.
Since passing JEE Main and MHT CET is the essential criteria for participating in engineering counselling besides clearing 12th exam, the admission notification and registration start only after the result of the entrance exams are declared.
The National Testing Agency (NTA) has already declared the result of JEE Main 2026. But the students are waiting for MHT CET 2026 which was held from April 11 to 20, 2026 in multiple shifts.
The Maharashtra CET Cell had conducted MHT CET exam this year in two sessions. The Answer Key of MHT CET 2026 Second Attempt has been released today i.e. May 23, 2026, and candidates have been given time till May 25, 2026 to raise objections.
It means MHT CET 2026 result should be declared any time after May 25, 2026. The online registration and admission process for FE 2026 will start soon after MHT CET result declaration.
