REAP Counselling 2026 Cut Off
REAP Counselling 2026 cut off is the closing JEE Main rank (or qualifying exam percentile) of the last candidate admitted to a specific college, course, and category in a given round. Cut offs are not published before counselling. They are a result of the allotment process itself.
How REAP Counselling Cut Off Works
REAP runs 10 rounds for B.E./B.Tech. Each round has its own closing rank. Round 6 (main counselling for Rajasthan candidates) typically shows the most competitive cut offs since the largest pool of state candidates participates. Rounds 7 and 8 (upward movements) have more relaxed cut offs because seats open up as candidates who were allotted better seats vacate their earlier ones.
The factors affecting cut off marks each year are as follows:
- Total number of seats available in each institution/branch
- Number of registered students
- Difficulty level of JEE Main 2026
- Vacancies generated through upward movements
Previous Year REAP Counselling Cut Off Data
Looking at previous year cut off data is the most reliable way to set your choice-filling strategy before the counselling window opens. Below are downloadable cut off files for previous years:
| Year | Round | Download Link |
|---|---|---|
| REAP Cut Off 2025 – Round 6 (Main Rajasthan Round) | All Colleges, Branches, Categories | Download PDF |

REAP Counselling 2026 Internal Sliding
Internal sliding allows candidates who have already been admitted to an institute to apply for a branch change within the same institute. This is done at the institute level after centralized rounds conclude.
Rules for internal sliding:
- The candidate must apply at their allotted institute.
- An option form with branch preferences within that institute must be submitted.
- Internal sliding is conducted based on REAP 2026 main merit.
- TFWS internal sliding happens first among TFWS candidates. Vacant TFWS seats after this are offered within the same branch, then merged into general pool.
- KM and Out of Rajasthan quota candidates can participate in internal sliding for their respective quota seats. After that, vacant KM and Out of Rajasthan seats are treated as open for Rajasthan candidates.
- After TFWS and KM/Out of Rajasthan sliding, general and all reserved categories (EWS, OBC, MBC, SC, ST, TSP) are considered for the remaining vacant seats.
