Faculty is good, the campus is good, but there are some management problems.
Placements: The placements have improved in the last few years, but only in numbers, not in income. The highest package last year also came from NIFT Patna, but the average isn't very high. Placements mostly depend on the student, not the campus, and the college doesn't have much impact on it.
Infrastructure: Mess food is good, but the quality isn't very high. Actions are being taken, but no results have been seen so far. Although the food variety is considerable, the quality is questionable. The canteen is big and spacious and offers almost everything at reasonable prices, and the food is tasty.
Faculty: The teachers and faculty are really experienced and good. The curriculum is also strong in most departments, with a strict jury and high competition, which promotes great elevation among talented students. The curriculum is well planned, and the extra subjects are taught by experienced teachers.
Other: The system of events and fests isn't very good. Many festivals are arranged, and they are enjoyable, but the Student Development Council can be a bit chaotic.

My college life is interesting.
Placements: Hello everyone, I'm studying at NIFT Patna right now. I'm going into my 2nd year in August; this is going to be my 3rd semester. About my college, NIFT Patna is good; last year placements were very good but this year lots of my seniors are facing problems in placements. So if you want the best placements, then you have to score 9 CGPA in every semester. In my class, there are 35 students. And the most important thing is that if you think NIFT Patna is not good, then you are wrong; NIFT Patna is so good at everything. If you are thinking of coming to NIFT Patna, then go for it.
Infrastructure: The library is so good. I'm not a hosteler so I don't know about hostels. The labs are to good; there are all the things required that are needed. But in its labs, some computers are not working and the most important thing you have to do is buy a laptop. If you have one, then it's good to bring it with you to every IT class, like DDC. If you don't have a laptop, please buy one. A laptop is so important in your first year. You have to make lots of assignments and presentations on your laptop. And RC computers don't have Adobe. Classes are also good; they have a projector for presentations and AC. The Adobe package will be provided to you here from the campus.
Faculty: Teacher are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. All teachers have different techniques for studying. If your thinking is unique different and good, then you are in right place. Just give the submission in time. And be confident in front of jury; let them speak first. You just need more then 15/30 there are mid term and end term submissions; you just need more then 15 out of 30 At the end, your total marks for mid term and endterm are calculated out of 60 per subject. So submit your submissions in time. And most importantly, be ready for back-to-back presentations in every subjects.
Other: I chose fashion communication because this is the best course in NIFT. And there placements are good. Events and fests are beyond your imagination. So just come and see. Connect with seniors and faculty members; they are so good.
