CFA November 2025 Level 1, 2 result dates announced
The CFA Institute will release the CFA November 2025 Level I and Level II exam results in the second week of January, marking an important phase for thousands of candidates who appeared for the professional finance certification.
According to the official schedule, Level I results will be declared on January 13, 2026, followed by Level II on January 15, 2026. Candidates will receive their individual score reports on their registered email addresses after 9 AM ET on the respective dates, and results will also be available on the official candidate portal at cfainstitute.org. The Institute will release the Minimum Passing Score (MPS) and category-wise performance breakdown along with the results, allowing candidates to evaluate their performance against the qualifying benchmark.
How to check CFA November 2025 results
Candidates will receive an email notification once the result is released, but they can also log in to their CFA Institute account and access the full score report. Here is how to check scores:
- Check your email on the scheduled result date for the official notification from the CFA Institute.
- Visit the official website at cfainstitute.org.
- Log in to your CFA Institute account using your registered email ID and password.
- Go to the “Exam Results” section on your candidate dashboard.
- Open your score report, which will show your qualification status, topic-wise performance and the Minimum Passing Score (MPS) for that exam cycle.
- Download and save the report for future reference.
- Avoid checking results on any unauthorised websites, as the Institute releases results only through official channels.
Passing criteria and scoring process
To be declared qualified, candidates must score above the Minimum Passing Score set for the November 2025 exam cycle. The MPS varies for each level and each exam window. The CFA Institute determines it after reviewing exam difficulty, psychometric analysis, and overall candidate performance.
The Institute follows a consistent approach that balances academic rigour and fairness, and the MPS is not disclosed in advance. Those who score below the benchmark will be marked ‘not qualified’.
What candidates should do next
Those who qualify Level I can begin planning for their Level II exam registration, while Level II qualifiers will be eligible to move to Level III. Candidates who do not qualify can register for the next available cycle, typically scheduled for May or August, depending on the level. The Institute’s website provides detailed timelines, curriculum updates, and retake policies to help candidates plan their next steps.
