If the candidate wishes to edit the examination city, then the candidate can edit the same on the official JEE Main portal. The general process for the same is as follows:

• First, visit the official JEE Main website at jeemain.nta.nic.in.
• Next, access the application correction facility once it becomes available.
• Then, log in to the portal with the necessary application details.
• Now, open your application form.
• Check whether the examination city can be edited.
• Choose the desired city from the listed cities as per the instructions.
• Finally, submit your form.

The official website of NTA presently provides details regarding JEE Main 2027 Session 1 application and other notices.

Can Candidates Change All Four JEE Main Exam City Choices?

It must be noted that candidates must not think that any particular application field or city choice may be changed in every possible circumstance. Correction field will be allowed only for the fields that can be provided through NTA.

For JEE Main 2027, candidates have to choose four preferred cities for their exam, and such cities depend on the address information given in the application form.

Final allocation of examination center will be done by NTA. Choosing any city as preferred does not imply that candidates will get that particular city as an examination center.

Will NTA Guarantee the Preferred JEE Main Exam City?

The candidates can mention their desired cities, but the allotment of the centers depends upon the examination schedule and availability of space at the centers decided by NTA.

Thus, modification of preference in the correction period does not ensure allotment of that particular city as the examination center.

The candidates should look into the information about the city provided by NTA and then download the admit card.

JEE Main 2027 Exam City List: What Has Changed?

List of the JEE Main 2027 examination city has been amended. According to reports citing the latest list of the examination cities/locations, there will be a total of 310 examination cities/locations, out of which 301 will be in India and nine will be abroad. The three new examination cities in India include Kalahandi and Sundargarh from Odisha, and Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar from Punjab.

The complete list is also fewer than the previous year's list. Since the city options may vary from year to year, it is recommended that the candidates use the list on the application portal.

Can You Change the Exam City After the Correction Window Closes?

The candidate must not depend on any correction after this point in time since the correction facility will have closed. According to NTA, the correction facility for Session 1 will be open till November 29, 2026, whereas the correction facility for Session 2 will open from February 8 to 10, 2027.

In addition, NTA has informed that those candidates who require corrections can do so in the correction facility only. The permitted fields and their conditions are to be verified via the portal.

What If You Made a Major Error in Your JEE Main 2027 Form?

Regarding Session 1, NTA has granted permission to the candidates that had committed mistakes in their applications to reapply through a new form on the basis of the guidelines laid out in its latest notice.

In case of a new form, there is a new application number. The candidate has to fill in his details along with uploading the necessary documents once again. There will be no refund of the fee paid for the previous application form.

This is an alternative to the regular facility of correction. The candidate should not reapply in order to rectify his mistake if it is possible through correction facility in the relevant section.
