JEE Mains 2025: How to avoid form rejection

The NTA will reject the JEE Main application form due to various reasons including incomplete or insufficient information, multiple applications, error in format or size of the documents uploaded, and failure of payment.

During the session 1 registration, the NTA noticed that the photographs uploaded by some of the aspirants were in the wrong format. It had given time for such students to rectify the error and upload a recent photograph. However, to avoid such instances, candidates are advised to ensure that the details and documents are submitted as per the specified format.

While uploading the photograph, students should ensure that the 80% face is visible, including ears, against white background.

“Spectacles are allowed only if they are used regularly. Polaroid and computer-generated photos are not acceptable. If the photographs uploaded are found to be fabricated, that is, de-shaped or seem to be hand-made or computer made, the application of the candidate will be rejected,” the NTA had said during session 1 registration.
