It is mandatory for every candidate to register for Online Counselling and follow the instructions properly. Without registration, a candidate will not be considered for NIFT admissions for the year 2020.

What exactly is counselling?

Candidates, after clearing the NIFT admission criteria need to first register for NIFT admissions and appear for the NIFT counselling later, as per the schedule given by the authority. Due to the scare of Covid-19, the entire counselling process has been shifted online.

The shortlisted NIFT candidates need to take part in the counselling in order to block their seats. It is very important that the aspirants take part in the counselling according to their NIFT entrance exam rank and also according to the category under which they have applied for admission. Multiple rounds of counselling are conducted for admissions at 16 NIFT campuses.

Documentation Update:

What’s the Update?

The rule mentioned in Annexure VI states that the details of Form A have to be filled by the candidate before a medical examination by a medical officer in any Government hospital. Form B also has to be filled by the medical office.

Taking into consideration the current pandemic situation and the difficulties to be faced at a Government hospital, it has been decided that candidates may get their Fitness Certificate i.e Form A and Form B from a practising MBBS doctor registered with the Medical Council of India and having a valid license to practise in India.
