Design Entrance Exam

Being a student from NIFT itself, I wont disagree that the course is pretty expensive but then as compared to other colleges it's cheaper. Leaving that apart, in the fashion industry, no one gets a placement like an MBA student does in the start. But it is definitely worth it in the long run if you do well in the industry.

Among the three colleges you have mentioned that is NIFT, MAEER and MIT Institute of Design, according to my research and own experience, NIFT, Delhi is best to pursue fashion designing. NIFT provides Bachelor of Design degree in fashion designing after a 4 year course.

No, NIFT doesn't provide Bachelor of Design Degree in Interior Designing. But you can go for fashion and lifestyle accessories (F & LA) as it includes homes decor and relative designing. NIFT provides you a B.Design degree in F & LA which is a 4 year course.

Hello Muskan,
It's very nice to know your dream of working in field of fashion designing. If you can both courses simultaneously then you can think of it. But both are very intense courses.

If you are passionate about design and are willing to go the extra mile and work extremely hard to carve a career in design then do try out the Master's course at NID.
I am currently pursuing my Masters in “New Media Design" @ NID and I have a lot of mechanical engineers as my batch mates.
Yes, there is an age limit of 30 years to apply for a Master's course at NID.

NIFT has a common entrance exam in all the cities. Syllabus remains the same. There are two parts of the exam, one is general ability test, in which maths (10th class level), GK, English are asked and the other one is creative ability test in which drawing and coloring based questions are asked.

Dear,
I would like to correct the information and there will be 3 hours creative test and in that you have to make a sketch or drawing on given topics and plus English test which will check your grammar.
All the best.

Hi, This college doesn't exist. I think you are talking about NEIFT, Guwahati. You can refer the link for the procedure.

Also, you didn't mention the course.

There are two kinds of rank given to a person. One is common merit rank and the other is category rank. Common merit rank is given after including all the students who had appeared for the exam, and category rank is the rank which is given to the students who belong to the same category as yours.
