What is the JU Evening BE 2027 entrance test pattern?

When JU holds the test, it is a 90-minute offline MCQ paper set separately for each diploma branch. The 2024 pattern is below; the 2027-28 notice will say whether a test is held at all.

How are JU evening BE seats filled?

JU fills each branch from a merit list of entrance test scores, followed by physical verification of original documents. In 2026, with the test waived, JU called candidates from a published list straight to document verification.

  • Ties in the merit list are broken by diploma percentage, then Class 10 percentage, then the older candidate.
  • Selected candidates report for physical verification-cum-provisional admission; JU then declares vacancies and admits waitlisted candidates.
  • Classes run from 6:00 to 9:00 PM, Monday to Friday, and 2:00 to 5:00 PM on Saturday. Civil Engineering field work and tours are held on some Sundays.

The 2024-25 seat matrix had 58 seats in each branch plus one Central Government (other) seat.
