The examination covers the following courses: B.Pharm, B.Sc Nursing, Post B.Sc Nursing, Post Diploma Nursing, M.Sc Nursing, MCA, M.Sc Computer Science, MBA, Integrated MBA, B.CAT, M.Tech, M.Tech (Part-Time), M.Arch, M.Plan, M.Pharm, as well as lateral entry admissions to B.Tech and B.Pharm programmes.
Regarding eligibility, the committee declared that candidates from outside Odisha are ineligible for admission to government institutions through OJEE.

Admission to various other professional programmes, such as B.Tech, B.Arch, B.Plan, Integrated M.Sc, MBBS, BDS, BAMS, and BHMS, would not be through OJEE. These admissions will be based on either JEE (Main) 2026 or NEET (UG) 2026, which are both administered by the National Testing Agency.
