Maharashtra FYJC Admission 2025: Revised Schedule, Centralised System & Key Guidelines
The Maharashtra School Education and Sports Department has officially revised the admission schedule for First-Year Junior College (FYJC) 2025, bringing relief and clarity to students and parents facing uncertainty due to initial technical hiccups. After a temporary pause, the Class 11 admission process is all set to resume, with the online portal reopening on May 26, 2025, via the official website — mahafyjcadmissions.in.
What’s new?
The FYJC 2025 admission process was initially launched on May 21, but the portal quickly encountered technical glitches, especially for mobile users. This prevented many students from completing their applications. In response, the education department temporarily shut down the portal and focused on stabilizing the system. With those fixes in place, the revised application window now runs from May 26 to June 3.

The move is aimed at simplifying the admission process and offering more flexibility and options to students, regardless of their location within the state.
Updated In-House Quota Rules
There has been a significant update to the in-house quota eligibility for 2025.
