What Should Candidates Do While Waiting for the Result?

  • Keep your credentials ready: Registration ID, password, and admit card details should be saved securely for quick result checking
  • Prepare early for Stage 2: Since Stage 2 carries 70% weightage, start revising your portfolio (for Cinematography/Editing/Direction courses), rehearsing for auditions (Screen Acting), or preparing for the interview well before the Stage 1 result is out
  • Watch only official channels: Rely solely on ftii.ac.in/announcement for the Stage 1 result and subsequent Stage 2 schedule — avoid unverified social media claims about result dates
  • Check both FTII and SRFTI updates: If you applied through the common JET registration, your result and next steps may also be relevant for SRFTI Kolkata admissions
  • Note the qualifying marks: Remember the minimum cut-off (50% General / 45% OBC-NCL) while assessing your own likely qualification status once marks are visible
