Hi you can refer below for some of the popular entrance exams which do not require the students to have passed from Science stream to be considered eligible for admission to top Fashion Designing Colleges in India:

Exam Name	Exam Schedule
CUET	CUET Schedule
NIFT Entrance Exam	NIFT Exam Schedule
NID Entrance Exam	NID Entrance Exam Schedule

 

Whenever you pursue two courses together, there is always a chance of losing out on one of the courses or may be both. It is, of course, difficult to manage two courses with intensive study material like BBA and fashion design. I would recommend you to rather go for any one course and dedicate your time and effort on one goal only.

Hope this helps!!!
