FYJC Part 1 Registration 2026-27: Complete Step-by-Step Guide


FYJC Part 1 Registration 2026–27: Complete Step-by-Step Guide for Beginners

Who is this for?

Any student who just passed Class 10 and is filling the FYJC (Class 11) admission form for the first time in Maharashtra. This guide walks you through every single screen, every field, and every possible mistake — in plain language, step by step.


What Is Part 1 and Why Does It Matter?

Part 1 is the very first step of the FYJC (Class 11) admission process in Maharashtra. It is your student registration on the official government portal.

Think of Part 1 as creating your identity in the admission system. Without completing Part 1 correctly, you simply do not exist in the system — and you cannot apply to any college.

Here is what Part 1 involves:

What You Do in Part 1Why It Matters
Create your Login ID and PasswordYour permanent account for all admission rounds
Fill personal and academic detailsThe system uses this to build your merit profile
Select your category and reservationDetermines which seats you are eligible for
Upload required documentsOfficials verify these to approve your form
Pay the registration feeYour form is not submitted without payment
Lock the formSignals to the system that your form is complete
Get your form VerifiedGives you access to Part 2 (college preference filling)
Most Important Rule

Your Part 1 form must show the status "VERIFIED" on your dashboard before you can move to Part 2. A form that is locked but not yet verified does not make you eligible for the merit list.

The Complete Part 1 Process — All 8 Phases

1

Phase 1 — Creating Your Account (New Registration)

Go to mahafyjcadmissions.in and click "New Student Registration." Select your region (Mumbai / Pune / Nagpur / Nashik / Amravati), then choose your School Area Status, Applicant Status, and Board.

2

Phase 2 — Entering Seat Number and Academic Details

SSC students enter their seat number and mother's name — the portal auto-fills your data. CBSE/ICSE/other board students must enter everything manually from their marksheet.

3

Phase 3 — Setting Up Contact Details and Password

Enter your email, mobile number, security question, and create a strong password. This creates your permanent login credentials.

4

Phase 4 — Filling the Complete Part 1 Form

After your first login, fill all sections: Personal Details, Address, Category & Reservation, and Qualification Details.

5

Phase 5 — Uploading Documents

Upload scanned documents (JPG/PDF, under 1 MB each): photograph, marksheet, SLC, Aadhaar, and any category certificates.

6

Phase 6 — Paying the Registration Fee

Pay via UPI, debit/credit card, or net banking. Download your payment receipt immediately.

7

Phase 7 — Reviewing and Locking the Form

Review every field one final time, then click "Lock Option Form." Once locked, you cannot edit without visiting a Guidance Center.

8

Phase 8 — Verification

SSC students get auto-verified in 24–48 hours. CBSE/ICSE/other board students must visit a Guidance Center with original documents for manual verification.

SSC vs Other Boards

SSC students: After selecting SSC and entering your seat number, the portal will auto-fill your name, marks, and school details from the government database. Double-check this data carefully.

CBSE/ICSE/Other board students: Your data will NOT auto-fill. You must type everything manually. Keep your marksheet in front of you.


Phase 2 — Academic Details

For SSC (Maharashtra State Board) Students

FieldWhat to Enter
10th Seat NumberYour SSC exam seat number exactly as on the marksheet (example: A123456)
Mother's First NameExactly as it appears on your Class 10 marksheet — spelling must match
Click "Get Data" or "Verify"The system will auto-fetch your name, DOB, school name, and marks

After clicking Verify, check every auto-filled detail carefully. If your name, date of birth, school name, or any marks appear incorrect, do not proceed — visit a Guidance Center before going further.

For CBSE / ICSE / Other Board Students

FieldWhat to EnterTips
Seat / Roll NumberYour board exam roll numberCopy exactly from marksheet
Month of ExamMarch or MayAs per your board's exam schedule
Year of Exam2026The year you appeared
Student Full NameExactly as on marksheetNo nickname, no short forms
School NameFull name of your schoolAs per your Leaving Certificate
School Index NumberIf availableAsk your school if unsure
Other Board Students Must Visit Guidance Center

After completing Part 1, an official must verify your marks and eligibility before your form can be approved. Without this, your form stays "Pending" forever.


Phase 3 — Contact Details and Password

FieldWhat to EnterWhy It Is Important
Email IDYour personal active email addressAll official notifications and allotment letters are sent here
Mobile NumberYour own personal mobile numberAll OTPs and SMS admission alerts come here
Security QuestionSelect from dropdownUsed if you ever forget your password

Captcha CodeType the letters/numbers shown on screenConfirms you are a real person

Password Rules

Your password must be at least 8 characters long and include:

Example of a strong password: Fyjc@2026Student

Use YOUR OWN Mobile Number

Use YOUR OWN mobile number — not a friend's or sibling's. Every OTP, every allotment SMS, and every important admission alert will go to this number. If you lose access to it, you lose access to your admission updates.


Getting Your Login ID and First Login

After you click Submit, the portal will display your Login ID on the screen.

Your Login ID typically looks like this:

Save Your Login ID Immediately

Write down your Login ID and Password on paper. Take a screenshot. Do NOT rely on memory alone. If you lose your Login ID, you will need to call the helpline or visit a Guidance Center to recover it. Losing access to your account mid-admission can cost you a seat.

How to log in:

  1. Go to mahafyjcadmissions.in
  2. Click "Student Login"
  3. Enter your Login ID and Password
  4. Enter the OTP sent to your mobile
  5. You will reach your Student Dashboard

Phase 4 — Filling the Complete Part 1 Form

After logging in for the first time, your dashboard shows multiple sections to fill:

Section A — Personal Details

Check your name, date of birth, and gender. For SSC students, these are usually auto-filled and locked. For other board students, type these exactly as they appear on your marksheet.

Important

If you spot an error in auto-filled data, do not just ignore it. An incorrect name or DOB will cause problems at the college reporting stage. Visit a Guidance Center to fix it before proceeding.

Section B — Address and Contact

Enter your current residential address in full — building name, street, area, city, district, state, and PIN code. This matters because some colleges and government schemes use your address zone to determine eligibility.

Section C — Category and Reservation (Most Critical Section)

This section determines which seats you are eligible for. Fill it with extreme care.

Main Category Options:

CategorySelect If You Are...
Open / GeneralNot belonging to any reserved category
SC (Scheduled Caste)SC community with Maharashtra-issued certificate
ST (Scheduled Tribe)ST community with Maharashtra-issued certificate
OBCOther Backward Class with Maharashtra NCL certificate
NT / VJ / SBCNomadic/De-notified tribes with Maharashtra certificate
EWSEconomically Weaker Section with EWS certificate

Parallel / Special Reservations (Tick if applicable):

Special StatusSelect If...
Sports QuotaYou have sports achievement certificates verified by DSO
PH / DivyangYou have a disability certificate (40% or more)
Defence WardYour parent is serving or ex-serviceman
OrphanYou have an official orphan certificate
Project / Earthquake AffectedYou have a collector's certificate
Out-of-State Caste Certificate Warning

If you select SC/ST/OBC but your caste certificate was issued by any state other than Maharashtra, your reservation claim will be rejected. Only Maharashtra-issued certificates are valid. Out-of-state students must select Open / General.

Section D — Qualification Details

SSC students: marks are auto-fetched. Verify them against your marksheet. Other board students: enter subject-wise marks manually, exactly as shown on your original marksheet.


Phase 5 — Uploading Documents

Each file must be:

DocumentNotes
Passport-size photographRecent, clear, white background preferred
Class 10 MarksheetFull marksheet scan — all subjects visible
School Leaving Certificate (SLC/TC)Official original — not a photocopy of a photocopy
Aadhaar CardBoth sides in one file if possible
Caste CertificateOnly if claiming reserved category — Maharashtra-issued
NCL CertificateIf OBC/NT/VJ/SBC
EWS CertificateIf applying under EWS quota
Migration CertificateOnly for CBSE/ICSE/other board students
How to Make Files Under 1 MB

If a scanned file is too large, compress it using free tools like ilovepdf.com (for PDFs), iloveimg.com (for images), or Smallpdf.com.

Common Rejection Reasons

Blurry photos, wrong file type (like .heic or .bmp), file over 1 MB, partially visible documents, or uploading the wrong document in the wrong field. Double-check every upload before proceeding.


Phase 6 — Paying the Registration Fee

After uploading documents, you must pay the registration fee. Your form is not submitted until payment is complete.

Fee Amount (2026–27)

RegionApproximate Fee
Mumbai₹50 per course (varies by number of streams applied)
Pune, Nagpur, Nashik, Amravati₹125 to ₹250 (region-specific)

Payment Methods Accepted

Payment Failure?

If payment fails but money is deducted from your account: Do not pay again immediately. Wait 24 hours — most failed transactions are automatically reversed. If not reversed, visit a Guidance Center or call the helpline: 8530955564.


Phase 7 — Reviewing and Locking the Form

This is the most critical moment in Part 1. Once you lock the form, you cannot edit it on your own.

Before You Click Lock — Final Review Checklist

Pre-Lock Verification

Your name matches your Class 10 marksheet exactly
Date of birth is correct (DD/MM/YYYY format)
Mobile number is yours and working
Email ID is correct and accessible
Category / reservation is correctly selected with valid certificates uploaded
All marks entered match your original marksheet
All documents are uploaded clearly and in correct fields
Password is saved somewhere safe

After Locking — Status Meanings

StatusWhat It Means
Locked / Pending VerificationForm is submitted and waiting for official approval
VerifiedForm is approved — you can now do Part 2
Rejected / DiscrepancySomething is wrong — visit Guidance Center immediately
Need to Make a Correction After Locking?

You cannot do this yourself. You must visit a Guidance Center — the official there has the authority to unlock your form for you to re-edit.


Phase 8 — Verification and What Happens After Locking

How Verification Works

For SSC students: The portal automatically verifies marks against the Maharashtra board database. Most SSC students get auto-verified within 24–48 hours if there are no discrepancies.

For CBSE / ICSE / other board students: Automatic verification does NOT happen. You must visit a Guidance Center with your original documents. An official will manually check your marksheet, Migration Certificate, and Passing Certificate, then mark your form as Verified on the portal.

For reserved category students: If your caste/EWS/disability certificate is not digitally linked, an official at a Guidance Center must verify the original document physically.

Check Daily

Check your dashboard every day after locking. Do not assume verification happens on its own. Once your form shows "Verified," you can proceed to Part 2 (college preference filling).


Common Mistakes and How to Fix Them

Mistake 1 — Wrong Mobile Number

If you entered someone else's number, all your OTPs and alerts will go to the wrong person. Fix this before locking. After locking, visit a Guidance Center.

Mistake 2 — Name Spelling Mismatch

Even one extra letter or spelling variation can cause a mismatch during verification. For SSC students with auto-filled names, if it looks wrong, visit a Guidance Center. Other board students must type it exactly as on the marksheet.

Mistake 3 — Wrong Category Selected

If you select OBC, SC, or ST but do not have a valid Maharashtra-issued certificate, your reservation will be invalidated at the reporting stage. Select Open if you are not sure.

Mistake 4 — Locking Before Uploading All Documents

Once locked, you cannot add or change documents yourself. Check every upload field is filled before clicking Lock.

Mistake 5 — Forgetting to Lock the Form

Students fill the entire form but forget to click "Lock." An unlocked form is NOT considered for the merit list — it is as if you never applied. Always confirm your form shows "Locked" or "Pending Verification" status.

Mistake 6 — Payment Transaction Fails

Do not double-pay immediately. Wait 24 hours. If the amount was deducted but your form does not show payment success after 24 hours, visit a Guidance Center with your bank transaction ID.

Mistake 7 — Portal Slow or Timed Out

The portal gets very heavy near deadlines. Log in early in the morning (before 9 AM). If the portal times out mid-filling, log back in — your data up to the last saved step is usually preserved.
