Why It Matters — FYJC Round 2 Is Your Second Chance
The FYJC Round 2 Registration opening today at mahafyjcadmissions.in represents a genuine second opportunity for the large number of students who either did not receive any allotment in Round 1 or received an allotment at a college or stream that was not their top preference. The Maharashtra FYJC Admission 2026 process is designed specifically to give multiple chances within a compressed window — the Round 2 seat pool typically includes all vacant seats from Round 1 (seats at colleges where allotted students did not confirm), plus any newly updated college seat matrices. For students who scored well in SSC but chose an overly narrow preference list in Round 1, the FYJC Choice Filling for Round 2 is the opportunity to expand choices strategically. For students who did not get Science in Round 1 and are determined to secure it, Round 2 — with a broader, more strategic preference list — is the pathway. Act today at mahafyjcadmissions.in.

📋 FYJC Choice Filling Strategy for Round 2 — How to Build a Better Preference List
The FYJC Choice Filling for Round 2 is the most important activity of today. Here is how to approach it strategically:
Learn from Round 1 Data
The Round 1 FYJC Merit List and allotment data published at mahafyjcadmissions.in shows the last merit number (cut-off) at which each college and division allotted students in Round 1. Compare your SSC merit number against these Round 1 cutoffs to calibrate which colleges are realistically accessible at your merit level. Colleges where the Round 1 cutoff was above your merit are aspirational (may open up in Round 2 if many Round 1 students didn't report); colleges where the cutoff was below your merit are realistic and safe. Use this data — it is published at mahafyjcadmissions.in — to build a stronger, more informed list for Round 2.
Expand Your List
- Cover all three tiers: Include aspirational colleges (top government colleges where you may not qualify but cutoffs fluctuate), realistic colleges (where your merit clearly qualifies based on Round 1 data), and safe colleges (lower-competition government and aided colleges where your merit definitely clears) — in that priority order
- Include multiple divisions at each college: For colleges that offer both Day and Night divisions (common in urban areas), list both — Night division cutoffs are often more accessible than Day
- Science stream specifics: If Science is your target, include government junior colleges in adjacent areas (not just your immediate locality) — government Science seats are the most competitive but the cutoffs at non-flagship government colleges are often more accessible than students realise
- Commerce and Arts: These streams have more available seats and lower cutoffs — if you are targeting Commerce, include at least 20 to 30 options across government, aided, and private colleges
- Do not leave the list too short: A preference list of only 5 to 8 choices in Maharashtra FYJC Admission 2026 Round 2 risks not getting any allotment if those options are all oversubscribed. Aim for 25 to 40 preferences covering aspirational, realistic, and safe tiers across your division
Documents to Keep Ready
- SSC (Class 10) marksheet — both original and self-attested photocopy
- School Leaving Certificate (SLC / Transfer Certificate)
- Category certificate — OBC/SC/ST/VJ/NT/SBC/EWS (if applicable) from government authority
- Aadhaar card (student's) + parent's Aadhaar (may be required for some applications)
- Domicile / nationality certificate (if required for your division)
- Recent passport photographs (3 to 4 copies)
- SAY / Supplementary pass certificate (if applicable and newly declared)
- Bank passbook or cancelled cheque (some divisions require for fee concession processing)
What's Next — FYJC Admission Process Round 2 Timeline
Following today's FYJC Round 2 Registration opening at mahafyjcadmissions.in: the registration and FYJC Choice Filling window remains open for 3 to 5 days (confirm exact deadline at mahafyjcadmissions.in). After the window closes, the FYJC Merit List for Round 2 is prepared — ranking students by SSC marks within their stream and preferred division. The Round 2 allotment is then published at mahafyjcadmissions.in — students who receive an allotment must confirm online and report to the allotted college within the specified window. Students who are still unallotted after Round 2 participate in Round 3 (if applicable in their division) or the Special Round for remaining vacant seats. All Maharashtra Education News on Round 2 allotment dates, FYJC Merit List publication, and reporting deadlines will be published on this page as confirmed at mahafyjcadmissions.in.
📌 Expert Analysis
Education counsellors tracking the Maharashtra FYJC Admission 2026 cycle identify Round 2 as historically the most successful round for students who did not achieve their preferred outcome in Round 1 — for two reasons. First: a significant percentage of Round 1 allotted students do not report to their allotted college (they may receive allotments at higher-preference colleges in other rounds, or fail to report for logistical reasons) — releasing those seats back into the Round 2 pool. Second: students who build a more strategic, expanded preference list for Round 2 — using Round 1 cutoff data as calibration — achieve significantly better outcomes than those who simply resubmit the same narrow preference list.
The most consistent Round 2 improvement strategy: expand the FYJC Choice Filling list from whatever it was in Round 1 — add colleges in adjacent areas, include both Day and Night divisions, and include some options where the Round 1 cutoff was above your merit but close enough that Round 2 fluctuation could bring it within range. The FYJC CAP Admission 2026 system assigns the best available option from your preference list — a longer list with more options can only improve outcomes, never worsen them.

FAQs
Q1. Who is eligible for FYJC Round 2 Registration in the Maharashtra FYJC Admission 2026 process?
FYJC Round 2 Registration at mahafyjcadmissions.in is open to: students who did not receive any allotment in Round 1 of the FYJC CAP Admission 2026; students who received a Round 1 allotment but did not report or confirm within the reporting window; students who want to attempt to upgrade their Round 1 allotment to a higher-preference college (check the specific upgrade provision at mahafyjcadmissions.in for 2026); and students newly eligible for Class 11 Admission Maharashtra (CBSE/ICSE results declared after Round 1, SAY pass certificates issued after Round 1). Students who received a Round 1 allotment at their first preference and confirmed it do not need to participate in Round 2. For all others, this Class 11 Admission Maharashtra Round 2 window is the key opportunity -- and every student seeking Class 11 Admission Maharashtra should register today.
Q2. How is the FYJC Merit List for Round 2 prepared?
The FYJC Merit List for Round 2 of the Maharashtra FYJC Admission 2026 process is prepared by the Divisional Education Board (DEB) after the Round 2 FYJC Choice Filling window closes at mahafyjcadmissions.in. The merit list ranks all Round 2 registered students by: SSC (Class 10) aggregate percentage, stream eligibility (Science requires minimum marks in Science and Mathematics), category (government/aided college reservations), and division/region criteria. The system then assigns the best available college and division from each student's preference list based on their merit rank — the highest-merit students get their top preferences, and seat allotment proceeds down the merit order until all seats are filled. The Round 2 FYJC Merit List is published at mahafyjcadmissions.in with individual allotment results.
Q3. What is the FYJC Choice Filling strategy for Round 2 if I want Science stream?
For Science stream in FYJC CAP Admission 2026 Round 2: first, check the Round 1 FYJC Merit List cutoff data at mahafyjcadmissions.in to see which colleges allotted Science students and at what merit level. Build a preference list that includes top government Science colleges (aspirational — cutoffs may fluctuate in Round 2), quality government-aided Science colleges (realistic), and unaided private Science colleges with good facilities (safe). Include Science colleges across your division and adjacent areas — limiting choices to only 5 to 6 colleges risks not receiving any allotment. Also confirm the minimum marks requirement for Science stream eligibility at mahafyjcadmissions.in before listing Science college options.
Q4. I was allotted in Round 1 but did not report — can I still participate in Round 2?
Yes — students who received a Maharashtra Junior College Admission allotment in Round 1 but did not report to the allotted college within the reporting window are typically eligible to participate in FYJC Round 2 Registration at mahafyjcadmissions.in. However, the specific rules on eligibility for students who forfeited a Round 1 allotment vary by division and year — confirm at mahafyjcadmissions.in in the Round 2 notification. Some divisions may impose a penalty (delayed priority) for students who forfeited Round 1 seats without cancelling, while others allow seamless participation in Round 2. Check the official FYJC Admission Process notification at mahafyjcadmissions.in for your division's 2026 specific rules.
Q5. When will the FYJC Round 2 allotment result be published?
The FYJC Merit List and Round 2 allotment result for the Maharashtra FYJC Admission 2026 process will be published at mahafyjcadmissions.in after the Round 2 FYJC Choice Filling deadline closes — typically within 2 to 3 days of the registration window closing. The allotment result shows each student's allotted junior college and division; students must confirm online and report to the allotted college within the reporting window specified in the Round 2 result notification. All Maharashtra Education News on the Round 2 allotment date and reporting deadline will be published on this page and at mahafyjcadmissions.in as confirmed by the Divisional Education Board.
