Average infrastructure and facilities, but good faculty and placement.
Placements: 70 to 80% of NIFT Patna are placed. The highest offered package was 12 to 13 Lacs per annum after B.Des, and the lowest is around 6 to 6.5 or 7 Lacs per annum. The average might be 8 to 10 Lacs per annum. Top recruiters are Aditya Birla, Reliance, Raymonds etc. About 80 to 90 % students get internships in Reliance, Raymonds, Arvind LTD, Myntra, Ajio, etc.
Infrastructure: Food quality is good. No hostel for boys. Wi-Fi facility lagging poor infrastructure, as in the sense most ACs don't work, water drips from walls or roof, library whereas there is a good sports ground available overall, the infrastructure and facilities are under average.
Faculty: Teachers are extremely qualified, helpful, and knowledgeable. If the students are sincere and attend the classes regularly, it's extremely helpful for them. Semester exams are a bit difficult, but pass percentage is good at least till the 3rd year or 6th sem.

The fee structure the fees of per semester is too high the are scholarship facility but because of limited seats is no value. Also the fun activities is down where it's sports, dancing, singing, fest, craft, a lot of activities is happening in college day to day dj night etc.

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.
