Hi,
To apply for a post graduate degree course, you are required to completed your graduation. However, many universities are open for admission and are holding their entrance tests these days. I suggest you opt for a postgraduate degree as it would definitely hold more value. Then again a M.Des Fashion Design has a lot of scope. A degree in this will open the doors to working with fashion houses or to start your own label since you come from a management background. Also choose universities that have a strong connect with the industry (e. g. IILM University, Gurugram, Pearl Academy, NID etc. ). For better internship and final placement opportunities. Take a look at the websites for these institutes for details on the Design Aptitude Test and entrances. Hope this helps.
