You can programmatically do a postback by calling the __doPostBack function, passing the name of the requesting control as a parameter. So what you can do is use a statement similar to this:

__doPostBack('name$of$the$select$control');

Just hook a function to the jQuery change event, and make it run the above line. Just make sure you are using the right name for the control.
