Ans: With an 88.7 percentile in JEE Main B.Arch, your son’s rank approximates 30,000–40,000, positioning him for state-level architecture colleges and mid-tier private institutions. Admission to premier NITs (e.g., NIT Trichy, Calicut) is unlikely, as their 2024 General category closing ranks ranged from 404–1,540. However, newer NITs like NIT Sikkim (2024 closing rank: 14,391) and NIT Arunachal Pradesh (15,386) are feasible, offering 70–80% placement rates in roles with firms like TCS and L&T. State colleges via UPTAC (e.g., HBTU Kanpur, cutoff: ~35,000) or Chandigarh College of Architecture (2024 closing rank: 5,430) provide viable pathways with regional industry linkages. For private universities, SRM Chennai (JEE Main cutoff: ~80,000–100,000) and VIT Vellore (~90,000) offer assured admission, albeit with higher fees. Recommendation: Prioritize NIT Sikkim/Arunachal Pradesh during JoSAA counselling and explore state colleges like KNIT Sultanpur or SPA Bhopal (2024 closing rank: 762). For backups, consider Amity University or Sharda University, which accept JEE Main scores and report 80–85% placement rates in architectural firms. If open to alternative exams, reappearing for NATA could expand options to institutes like CEPT Ahmedabad or JJ College of Architecture, which prioritize design aptitude over JEE ranks. All the BEST for your Son's Admission & a Prosperous Future!
