OFSS Merit List 2026 - Quick Info

Merit List Calculation - Kaise Banta Hai

Primary Factor: 10th Marks

• Bihar Board / CBSE / ICSE / Other recognized board marks
• Aggregate percentage / CGPA conversion
• Higher marks = higher rank in merit list

Secondary Factors

• Faculty preference (Science/Commerce/Arts/Vocational)
• Reservation category (Gen/EWS/BC-1/BC-2/SC/ST)
• 20 college choices filled in application (priority order)
• Female reservation (specific quota)
• District / Region preference (some colleges prefer local students)

Tie-Breaking Rules

If two students have same percentage:

1. Date of Birth - older candidate gets preference
2. English marks in 10th
3. Mathematics marks in 10th
4. Subject-wise marks (faculty-relevant)

Slide-Up Option - Detailed Guide (5-12 May)

Slide-Up = upgrade chance for students unsatisfied with current allotment.

Who Can Use Slide-Up?

• ✅ Students whose name IS in 1st merit list but want better preference college
• ✅ Students whose name NOT in 1st merit list can submit fresh choices
• ❌ Students who ALREADY admitted at allotted college - not eligible

How Slide-Up Works:

1. Don't take admission immediately at 1st-list allotted college
2. Login OFSS portal during 5-12 May window
3. Select 10-20 fresh college preferences (better than current allotment)
4. Submit - automatic processing
5. Higher preference college allot hoga 2nd merit list me
6. If no upgrade = original 1st-list allotment remains valid

Slide-Up Risk:

• ⚠️ Original 1st-list seat NOT guaranteed if you don't admit + slide-up fails
• ⚠️ Strategic timing - don't wait till 12 May last day (system load)
• ✅ Safe move: Admit at 1st-list college first → then withdraw if slide-up gives better
