The admission board will announce cut-off marks for admission to different Junior Colleges. Students when applying online will have to submit their class 10 marks in the portal.
Until last year the School Education and Sports Department (SESD) of Government of Maharashtra held 11th admission process through '11thadmission.net' website. SESD would release cut-off based on which students would be granted admission in Junior College.
The new website '11thadmission.org.in' will begin taking applications when the SSC results are announced in Maharashtra. Maharashtra Board is expected to announce SSC or class 10 results by the end of July.
