National Institute of Fashion Technology Mumbai Navi Mumbai Answered Questions

Hi,
Most colleges start in August and they release the admission forms in November. You can look for polytechnic colleges or colleges with a smaller design program which have space available.You can work on your sketching skills and study for the entrances that you can appear for next year. You can take up internships with designers or brands and work on building a resume.

There is really no comparison between the two courses. B.Design is more into the creative side while F.Tech is more technical. It's best to see what skills you possess and where your interests lie and pick a field accordingly. You can also see what kind of jobs you get after your graduation to see what you prefer

Hi Carelin,
There are numerous question papers that you can find online regarding the entrance exams. There are also a few preparatory books you can find online (the one I personally used for B.Des was by the publisher Arihant). Work on your creative skills and general aptitude skills. Good luck.

Hello Dharmishtha,
Of course, you can, but before embarking on Master's degree, you will have to complete your graduation. That's all. With an increase in population and awareness about grooming, I feel it's the best course that you are thinking of.

Hi Seema,
According to last year's cut off, OBC rank 611 got the last seat of Fashion Design department in NIFT, Delhi and OBC rank 961 got the last seat of Fashion Communication department in NIFT, Mumbai. So with an OBC rank 612, you can try for FC but it will be tough for FD.
