No, you **cannot apply for the NIFT entrance exam 2025 now** because the **online registration period for NIFT 2025 admissions** was open from around **22 November 2024** and the **last date to submit the application without late fee was 6 January 2025**, with a **late fee window until 9 January 2025**. The NIFT 2025 exam was then held on **9 February 2025** for UG and PG programmes and the process is complete, so the application period has already passed and you **cannot apply at this time for NIFT 2025**.

Dear parent, We understand you want to change your daughter’s admission location (NIFT Patna) to another convenient location. The good news is that it is possible to change the NIFT campus location after counselling. This is only possible if the desired NIFT has a vacant seat on the campus for the course opted by your daughter. A consolidated list of available vacancies will be uploaded on the NIFT website by the Head of Administration. Students interested in permanent transfer must submit the SPT form, undertaking, and supporting documents to their respective NIFT Campus before the due date. The recommended SPT forms will be forwarded to the Head of the campus by the Local Academic Standard Committee (LASC). This transfer is accommodated according to the ‘ NIFT Student Permanent Transfer (SPT) Policy’.
