Dear sir, My son is in class 11th now and preparing for jee by going to Allen.We live in Vadodara Gujarat. 1.I want to ask you what is the criteria for a home state quota. 2.We have an option of going to Pune, through my husband's job and get my son's 12th in Pune. Please let me know which state is better Gujarat or Maharashtra for engineering colleges.

Ans: Hi Anand.
Answers to your query point-wise
1) You must clear 11th and 12th from the same state to be eligible for the home state quota and must have scored a good rank on the home state entrance examination.
2) If you wish to shift to Pune, see that the 11th + 12th should be completed from the Maharashtra Board.
3) Maharashtra is a better choice than Gujrath for engineering colleges.

Dear Sir,I am confused.I had asked the same question to Mr Mayank Chandel also and he replied that for Home state quota he needs to complete his 10th and 12th from same state.But as per your answer 11th and 12th need to be from the same state. Request you to please clear the confusion. Thanks a lot

Ans: Hi
Thanks for contacting us again and we want to remove the confusion in your mind.
The home state is determined by the school's location from which you have completed your 12th grade or equivalent.
If you complete your 12th grade in Maharashtra, your home state will be considered Maharashtra, regardless of where you completed your 10th grade.

Imp: it is not compulsory to complete both the 10th and 12th grades from the same state to be considered for the home state quota. The 12th-grade location is the critical factor.

For example, if you complete your 10th grade in Gujarat and your 12th grade in Maharashtra, your home state for college admissions would be Maharashtra.

Finally, Since you are completing your 12th grade in Maharashtra, you will be eligible for the home state quota in Maharashtra. You do not need to have completed both the 10th and 12th grades in the same state to be eligible for the home state quota; only the 12th-grade location matters.

If dissatisfied with the reply, pl ask again without any hesitation.
