[2015-2017] IIFT Admission Notification and related discussion (Official)

How many total seats are there for general category?

Hey guys! Hope you're all amazing. I know it's been long.

IIFT starts with its second round of the admission processes tomorrow. For most of you, this may be the first process of the season. No advice from my side, I've found that advice (or tips as they call it) only tends to confuse people further, and make them more nervous. Be good, be confident and you'll be okay.

This isn't the end of the world, if you don't perform as per expectations tomorrow. Have a good night's sleep, okay? Do not fret. Just make sure you have packed everything you're going to carry tomorrow tonight itself (and I mean even the people who have the afternoon slot are going all meh, I'll do it tomorrow morning). Iron your shirts and suits, polish your shoes, check your ties for any stains. Invest in a comb.

What else can I say? All the best, guys. For any doubts, you know where to holler at. Do tell me how it went, I'd be sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for your messages.

All the best again. Do well.

Hope you are very well  prepared for the final round. Some of you might have attended a few processes as well.

Hi Seniors...i need your help!!

My IIFT interview dates are clashing with IIM-K on 12th feb. Even the timings are same. I contacted IIM-K and they were outright in saying that they wont change the dates and contact the other institute. I contacted IIFT yesterday with mails and calls but no response yet as such...what should I do? Will IIFT reschedule my GD/PI as both the processes are important in my life and career...

Hi Guys,I cleared the cut-off for IIFT(Second list) but I have no official communication regarding GD/PI or anything.What should I do?

Hello all!

So the long-awaited second round's over (well, at least for IIFT). It must have been a pain waiting for it, huh? We were so glad to host each of you. You guys have all been wonderful performers. Do take a bow. How was the whole experience, besides the actual process? Was everything smooth? Have we been helpful? Tell us all that you think.

As for what you do now, is relax and focus on other shortlists that you may have. The tentative dates for results is the third week of March. Again, remember, TENTATIVE. Meanwhile, you can read more about IIFT, its legacy and follow all its major campus events to know more about them.

As always, you can forward any queries that you might have to me. I'll be glad to help you out.

All the very best! Hope to see you at IIFT.

Shanton

Any word on wait list? Will it be there? If yes, when?

Some help needed here!

What is the procedure for withdrawing admission from IIFT delhi? 

shortlisted for kolkata. what next? when will they send the e-mail for further proceeds?

CVs seem to be super important in B-school. Seems that they are quite extensive and the shortlist from companies rely on them. Is this the reality or it is a hype? How competitive is the seen inside? Will it be really useful if I use my time now to work on it?

what are the parameters they consider for admission in iift??

Did registrations start for IIFT 2016 exam?

I have done the registration and the payment I did is through debit card ... I got the printed layout of my registration ... Please let me know I have to send sone relevant documents to iift Delhi or not ???

 How many months of experience should i put for filling the cat application form if i joined on 5th march 2013 ? 

How can i come to know that my application reached iift delhi??

Any specific book for preparation of IIFT and for GK section too ?

The NC OBC certificate sample uploaded in  IIFT website is slightly different from CAT sample..Can I use the NC OBC certificate that i got in the CAT format ?

Should SC/ST applicants send the admission form along with caste certificate to the college via post, after completing the online registration process?
