Reservation for Women

A female candidate can apply under All India Level or Women Quota System since most of the colleges reserve 5 % seats for female candidates.

For instance, there are colleges which offer relaxation to girls in terms of percentage of marks. So, if the cut off is somewhere around 98% for a particular seat/course, a girl can apply for the same seat at around 93%.

For PwD students, the relaxation is approximately a further 3%.
