The Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions Committee will begin counselling for B.Arch. from October 9 for general category students for the academic year 2022-23. 

On Wednesday, the committee released the merit list. Of the 2,491 applications that were received, 1,607 candidates were found to be eligible. Among them, three candidates with disabilities, 22 sports persons and 18 wards of ex-servicemen were found eligible for counselling under general category. 

Under preferential reservation of 7.5% seats for government school students, there were none in the persons with disability and sports categories. One government school student has qualified under wards of ex-servicemen for a seat under preferential reservation quota.

They may also reach out through the call centre.
