Here’s a reminder for all those planning to appear for the Joint Entrance Exam (JEE) Main in January 2020 that the online application portal for the process is set to shut down on the 30^th of September 2019. So, all those who still haven’t applied but are willing to must do so at the earliest before the given deadline. JEE Main is one of the most important national level competitive examinations for securing admission into National Engineering colleges and institutions of great repute.

From 2019 onwards, the onus for conducting the JEE Main exam has been given to the National Testing Agency (NTA) which is a government body that has been entrusted with the task of conducting entrances and other such examinations for students in higher-level educational institutions across the country. The NTA has therefore set 30^th September as the deadline for the application process which has to be adhered to.
